The delegates reached a compromise on Congress's power over trade primarily to balance the interests of both northern and southern states. Northern states favored strong federal control to regulate trade and protect their shipping interests, while southern states were concerned about potential tariffs on their exports, particularly agricultural products. Ultimately, they agreed to grant Congress the authority to regulate interstate and international trade, while also prohibiting export taxes, ensuring a fairer trade system that appeased both sides. This compromise was crucial for securing broader support for the Constitution.

The disagreement between northern and southern positions on outlawing the slave trade was resolved through a series of compromises during the drafting of the U.S. Constitution in 1787. These compromises included the Three-Fifths Compromise and the agreement to allow the international slave trade to continue for a limited period. These compromises laid the foundation for the eventual abolition of the slave trade in 1808.
