1868
bc the southern states' economies needed the slave trade, and many southern delegates said they'd leave the Union if the constitution immediately ended the trade. =D
My dick
The Constitutional Convention left the slave trade untaxed and untouched. Delegates from the southern States were naturally wary about the prospect of Congress being able to regulate America's interstate and foreign trade. They were afraid that the North would use its influence in Congress to levy taxes on the slave trade and the cotton trade. The delegates from the South pushed for, and won, a compromise on the matter: the Commerce and Slave Trade Compromise. This agreement made it so Congress could regulate interstate and foreign trade, but could not tax exports. This meant that cotton exports from the South would not be affected. In addition, Congress was forbidden from regulating the slave trade for 20 years.
The major compromises that the delegates agreed to make were The Connecticut Compromise, The Three-Fifths Compromise, and The Commerce and Slave Trade Compromise.
The constitution should prohibit the states from participating in the international slave trade.
