Well I dont know why but ithink some one from black history led them
Northern states wanted to include slaves in their population count primarily to increase their representation in Congress. While they did not advocate for slavery, counting slaves would provide the Southern states with more political power, which Northern states sought to limit. Additionally, including slaves in the count would help secure federal funds based on population, benefiting the Northern states economically. Ultimately, this debate highlighted the tensions between free and slave states during the early years of the United States.
The northern states didn't have slavery as the southern states did, and they were smaller. They were afraid that if slaves were counted as part of the population that would give the southern states an advantage when they were represented in Congress. In 1790 35% of the population in VA was slave, so that can make a difference in the balance of power between states.
the northern and southern states differed in their attitudes toward slavery because the northern states were against slavery while the southern states were all for slavery, in fact they had slaves. The northern and southern states disagreed about it so much that it caused a war, known as the civil war.
the reason the northern states allowed slave trade to continue was so they could have laws they wanted passed to be agreed with by the southern states. within doing this, there was a compromise and the northern states agreed to it. so, the slaves we left as property to the plantation owners and northern states didn't have to return run away slaves to their owners.
During the peak of slavery in the United States, the majority of enslaved people lived in the Southern states. By the time of the Civil War, only about 1-2% of the total enslaved population resided in the Northern states, as Northern states had largely abolished slavery by the early 19th century. Therefore, the percentage of slaves in the North was minimal compared to the South.
The disagreement over if and how slaves should be counted for Congressional apportionment purposes. The opposing sides were the northern states and the southern states. The northern states who opposed slavery argues that only free state inhabitants could be counted towards apportionment while the southern states argued that slaves should counted towards their population apportionment number.
3/5 Compromise

One-Half Compromise was the compromise that dealt with the Northern States concern of the Southern States using slaves as part of the counted population thus influencing their representation in Congress.
Although slaves couldn't vote, the Southern states wanted to count them for the purpose of increasing their representation in the House of Representatives. The Northern states didn't want to count slaves at all because the South insisted slaves were property and not persons. The Three Fifths Compromise was was just that...a compromise that allowed the South to count three-fifths of the slaves towards their total population which ultimately gave the South greater representation in congress than they would otherwise have had.
To get both the northern and southern states to agree to it. The southern states wanted slaves counted in the population for determining representation in Congress (even though slaves couldn't vote). The northern states wanted them excluded.
No, Guam did not have slaves during the American Civil War. During the Civil War Guam and the other northern states had no slaves while the southern states did have slaves. The states in the Pacific such as Guam and Hawaii were on the northern side and so did not have slaves.

The northern and southern states disagreed about it so much that it caused a war, known as the civil war.
When it came to apportioning direct taxes, the northern states believed that slaves were not citizens and couldn't be counted as people. However, since the majority of the slave population was in the southern states, the northern states had less political power and representation in the government.
Slaves should not be included when counting a states population to determine representation in congress. (APEX)

The Northern States and Canada, but I don't know what the Northern States are though!
