Delegates met in Philadelphia in 1787 to create a new government. Soon after the convention began, two competing plans for repre

sentation developed. Large states
supported a plan that created a strong national government. Their plan would base representation by the size of population. Small states supported a plan for a
weaker national government that would have a one-house legislature represent all states equally. Disputes between big states and small states nearly broke up the
convention. The delegates finally compromised on a plan that created a powerful national government. The legislature would have two houses. The number of
representatives to the lower house would be based on population. Each state would send two representatives to the upper house.
What did small states gain in the compromise plan?
O a powerful national government to protect their interests against big states
some ability in the upper house to check large states power in the lower house
the right to elect some members to the upper house based on their populations
o the right to have two representatives per state in the upper house, rather than just one per state

How did large-scale agriculture lead to new patterns of living in river valley civilizations?
Alex73 [517]
Many primary civilizations started in river valleys because for the cities in each civilization an important portion of the population existed in cities. Large-scale farming was a requirement to feed the large populations. Fertile due to flooding the land by rivers was home to lush plant life and an outstanding place to plant and grow crops. The close source of water permitted for irrigation for the large-scale farming as well as drinking and bathing. Water also intended animals and animals meant food so this was another advantage to settling in river valleys. Settling and living in river valleys later main to further development of civilizations and new patterns of living such as trade and communication by means of the river for transportation.

Why was Russia not affected by the Great Depression?
TEA [102]

During the Five Year Plans Stalin created an almost pure command economy. If he needed food, he requisitioned it. If that didn't work, he had the country-side searched for private stocks which he confiscated, having first killed its owners. If he wanted to build a factory in the Urals, he sent people there to build it using food and materials he had requisitioned elsewhere. He killed maybe 15 million people he thought were opposing his policies. He also inspired workers very effectively, convincing them that they were building a new type of civilization, and were in fact becoming a new and better type of human being. He was helped in this endeavor by the fact that the entire rest of the world was manifestly against the Soviet experiment and wanted it to fail. The workers believed their lives depended on rapid industrialization, and given the rise of fascism, and their leaders murderous resolve, they were right.

How did John Brown's raid at Harper's Ferry further increase sectionalism?
Grace [21]

Answer:

C. Southerners feared that abolitionists and freed slaves were a danger to them.

Explanation:

John Brown was a famous American abolitionist born on the 9th of May, 1800 in Torrington, Connecticut, United States of America. He had a strong belief and conviction that the only way to end American slavery was through violence since open sermons, speeches, moral pleas and petitions in the past had failed.

This raid at Harper's Ferry was on the arsenal of the United States of America in Virginia and it took place for 3 days, from the 16th of October, 1859 to 18th of October, 1859.

Hence, John Brown's raid at Harper's Ferry further increase sectionalism because southerners feared him and freed slaves were a danger to them.
