6 0

Also known as the "Connecticut Compromise" or "Sherman's Compromise," the Great Compromise was reached during the U.S. Constitutional Convention in the 1787. Like the previous proposals, the agreement allowed for the creation of the two houses of the U.S. Congress. The members in the lower house, the House of Representatives, were to be allotted based on population. Unlike the previous proposals, the members of the upper house, the Senate, were to be allotted not proportionally, but two to each state. The compromise was reached to address the feeling from the smaller states that their interests would be drowned out by the larger states.

Describe the extent of japanese influence in china in 1938

patriot [66]

The years between 1912 and 1938 were filled with upheaval in China. It was marked by the driving out of many of the foreign people there because it was believed they were a bad influence.

At this point, the Japanese were making quick work of the Chinese army with their highly industrialized military and basically un-opposed air superiority. Japan also had a puppet regime in Manchukuo (formerly and currently known as Manchuria, the Northern section of China) and had established the deposed Qing Dynasty emperor, Puyi, as their token ruler.
