Constitution and Compromise

Question 3 • EA Academy Civics 9

The debate surrounding slavery at the Constitutional Convention continued to grow after the Three-Fifths Compromise.

Answer
A
the Civil War
B
the American Revolution
C
George Washington’s election
D
the creation of the Bill of Rights

Explanation

The Three-Fifths Compromise addressed how enslaved people would count toward representation and taxation, but it did not resolve the conflict over slavery. Tensions continued to grow in the United States and eventually contributed to the Civil War. The American Revolution, George Washington’s election, and the Bill of Rights do not mark that later culmination.
