The Constitutional Convention happened in 1787 in Philadelphia. The intent of the convention was to establish the U.S. Constitution. Each state, regardless of its number of delegates had a single vote. Thirty-nine of the fifty-five delegates supported the adoption of the new Constitution. Rhode Island was against the Convention and therefore sent no representation.
Of the present delegates, the 16 representatives who refused to sign the Constitution were:
Oliver Ellsworth - Connecticut
William Houstoun - Georgia
William L. Pierce - Georgia
Luther Martin - Maryland
John F Mercer - Maryland
Elbridge Gerry - Massachusetts
Caleb Strong - Massachusetts
William C. Houston - New Hampshire
John Lansing Jr - New York
Robert Yates - New York
William R Davie - North Carolina
Alexander Martin - North Carolina
George Mason - Virginia
James McClurg - Virginia
Edmund J. Randolph - Virginia
George Wythe - Virginia
Answer:
1.) A common explanation is that the Civil War was fought over the moral issue of slavery. In fact, it was the economics of slavery and political control of that system that was central to the conflict. A key issue was states' rights
2.) The new United States government was thus free to acquire Native American lands by treaty or force. Resistance from the tribes stopped the encroachment of settlers, at least for a while.
While we make use of many varieties of data, our primary sources come
from county tabulations drawn from the U.S. censuses of population
and agriculture. We have collected those data for the decennial
population censuses from 1880 through 2000, as well as for the
agricultural censuses (which were decennial until 1920 and then more
frequent thereafter) from 1880 through 1997.3 In addition to
census-based sources, we have collected other county-level
tabulations of social characteristics. We use the population and
social indicators data to understand population structure and
change, and the agricultural census data to understand agricultural
land use. Their consistency, as well as the effectiveness and
long-term quality of the U.S. census, have made this part of our
project straightforward. Some of these data were available to us in
digital form, and others we collected in print form and then
hand-keyed into our database. All of these data are described in
Gutmann et al.
(1998). Since that document was published, we have added
data from recent censuses (1997 agriculture and 2000 population),
while maintaining their content and structure. Although our study
area is not coterminous with the 10 states, we have collected data
that covered the entire area of the 10 Great Plains states, and
often neighboring states, especially Iowa and Minnesota.
