To come together in the middle so both the small states and the large states got a little of what they wanted, the Great Compromise stated that the legislative branch will be bicameral. It would have to houses; a House of Representatives, and the Senate. In the Senate, each state got two votes or representatives, (regardless of population), and in the House of Representatives, the number of reps. from each state would be based on the state's population.]]> 2018-11-07 17:58:08 UTC https://padlet.com/paige_johnson_873/oiimxuqlea04/wish/301680853 paige_johnson_873 https://padlet.com/paige_johnson_873/oiimxuqlea04/wish/301681097 2018-11-07 17:58:27 UTC https://padlet.com/paige_johnson_873/oiimxuqlea04/wish/301681097 paige_johnson_873 https://padlet.com/paige_johnson_873/oiimxuqlea04/wish/301683555 2018-11-07 18:01:34 UTC https://padlet.com/paige_johnson_873/oiimxuqlea04/wish/301683555 The north and south disagreed again about trade regulation. paige_johnson_873 https://padlet.com/paige_johnson_873/oiimxuqlea04/wish/301683991 2018-11-07 18:02:08 UTC https://padlet.com/paige_johnson_873/oiimxuqlea04/wish/301683991 Southern View paige_johnson_873 https://padlet.com/paige_johnson_873/oiimxuqlea04/wish/301684486 The southern states didn't want trade to be regulated because they wanted to make sure that the "regulation of trade wouldn't threaten the sale of slaves" (Issue 3 Background), and their crops such as cotton and tobacco.]]> 2018-11-07 18:02:51 UTC https://padlet.com/paige_johnson_873/oiimxuqlea04/wish/301684486 Northern View paige_johnson_873 https://padlet.com/paige_johnson_873/oiimxuqlea04/wish/302525936 The northern states wanted trade to be regulated because their economy was more industrial, and thought that it would help it run more smoothly.]]> 2018-11-09 12:52:30 UTC https://padlet.com/paige_johnson_873/oiimxuqlea04/wish/302525936 The Commerce Compromise paige_johnson_873 https://padlet.com/paige_johnson_873/oiimxuqlea04/wish/302527227 The Commerce Compromise allowed both sides to get their way at some time, but would push the topic to the side for a while.
