Norma-Jean [14]3 years ago
5 0

The Great Compromise solved the issue of representation by putting the ideas of large(Virginia) states and small( New Jersey) states together. This compromise started off by keeping a two house Congress which were the House of Representatives and the Senate. The House of Representatives came from the large states plan, and the Senate came from the small states plan. The first house represented the people, and it involved a number of representatives based on population of the state. The second house represented the states, and each of the states will have two senators that were elected by their legislature which constructed equal representation.

Featured snippet from the web
Though the word "slavery" does not appear in the Constitution, the issue was central to the debates over commerce and representation. The "Three-Fifths Compromise" provided that three-fifths (60%) of enslaved people in each state would count toward congressional representation, increasing the number of Southern seats.

What impression does Cortés give about the city of Tenochtitlán?
Wittaler [7]

The correct answer is - It is well built and well-organized.

Even though Cortes was not very fond of the people he encountered and fought in Central America, the total opposite can be said about his thoughts of their achievements and he actually admired their architecture and organization. He was on the opinion that the Aztec capital, Tenochtitlan, was a very beautiful city, with very nice architecture, and that it was very well organized.

How many African American slaves lived on the Negro Fort? a. 500 c. 40 b. 1,000 d. 100
Artyom0805 [142]

Negro Fort was a fort built by the British in 1814, during the War of 1812, on the Apalachicola River, in a remote part of Spanish Florida. It is part of the Prospect Bluff Historic Sites, in the Apalachicola National Forest, Franklin County, Florida.


The fort was called Negro Fort only after the British left in 1815, its later residents and staff were primarily blacks (free Negroes or fugitive slaves), together with some Choctaws. There were a significant number of maroons already in the area before the fort was built[citation needed] and beginning in 1804 there was for several years a store (trading post) there. The blacks, having worked on plantations, knew how to plant and care for crops, and also to care for domesticated animals, mostly cattle.
