What allowed the slave states to count their slaves as part of the population when playing taxes and electing representatives?
The Three-Fifths Compromise, established during the Constitutional Convention in 1787, allowed slave states to count each enslaved person as three-fifths of a person for the purposes of taxation and representation. This compromise was intended to balance the interests of slaveholding states with those of free states, enabling slave states to boost their political power while acknowledging the existence of slavery. Consequently, it increased the number of representatives these states could send to Congress, further entrenching the institution of slavery in American politics.

Why do some state have more representatives than other states?
The amount of representatives is based on the population of the state. If your state is more populated, you will receive a larger number of representatives. This is to even out the playing field. If you have two states and one has a population of 1,000,000 while the other has a population of 1,000 yet you only allow the same number of representatives to represent all the citizens in both states, that is unfair. However, this is also unfair to the less populated states because they won't have as many representatives as the more populated states. So to compromise, the Senate was created, where each state is given two senators to report to the Senate. The Senate is also given more power than the House of Representatives for this reason.
