What compromises did the government make leading up to the US Civil War?
There were a number of compromises made in the US leading up to the US Civil War. The list is as follows:1.

( this was a hollow deal as slaves continued to be imported under cover) 2. The Missouri Compromise of 1820 to keep the balance of slave and free states equal; 3. The Missouri Compromise of 1850, this also to keep the slave-free state balance, but added the Fugitive Slave Law; and 4. The Kansas-Nebraska Act allowing citizens to vote on the slave issue when a territory had yet to apply for statehood.

How were both the great compromise and the three-fifths compromise related to population?
Both assuaged the concerns of the less-populous Southern colonies, to encourage them to remain part of the US under the US Constitution, these states having first joined under the Articles of Confederation.The Great Compromise, or Connecticut Compromise, was a bicameral (two-house) plan used to settle the representation of states in the US Congress. It balanced the power of northern states (with their greater population) and southern states (with their great land area). In the Senate, all states received equal representation regardless of population, that being two senators per state. In the House of Representatives, representation was apportioned based on population.In the House, however, another concession was made to encourage ratification of the Constitution by southern states: their slave populations were included in their apportionment, but only at 3/5 of the actual slave count. This was despite the fact that no slaves could actually vote in a state or federal election.
