What compromises made at the Constitution convention helped shape the national government?
Two of the most important constitutional compromises learned in school are the Great Compromise and the 3/5's Compromise. The Great Compromise was in regards to how the nation's legislature would be organized; the compromise settled the dispute by creating one house based on the population of each state- the House of Representatives, while the second house would hold two seats for each state- the Senate. The second compromise was in regards to how the House of Representatives would be affected by southern slaves. According to the 3/5's Compromise, each slave would count for 3/5's of a citizen in the census.
