The document summarizes several compromises that were made during the Constitutional Convention to address issues left unresolved by the Articles of Confederation, including representation of states, slavery, and the powers of the national government. The 3/5ths Compromise addressed how to count slaves for representation and taxation. The Great Compromise created a bicameral legislature to balance the interests of small and large states. The Electoral College Compromise balanced the popular vote with state influence over presidential elections. These compromises helped convince more states to ratify the new Constitution.
