SO EASY!!!!!!!! NOT JOKING

The Great Compromise
(Populated States vs. the Less Populated States)

Perhaps the biggest arguments during the Constitutional Convention came when delegates of the convention argued how representation to the government should be divided between the states. States with large populations wanted to be represented in Congress based on the population of each state. The bigger the population, the more representatives that state sent to Congress. This was known as the Virginia Plan.
The states with smaller populations did not agree. They thought the population should not matter. They thought each state should send an equal amount of representatives to Congress. This was known as the New Jersey Plan.
How the founding fathers settled this argument was called the Great Compromise. They decided that Congress would be divided into 2 chambers: the House of Representatives and the Senate. Each would have a different method to determine how many members from each state would be sent to Congress.

What ideas about government
united the people who signed the
Mayflower Compact?

The Olmec civilization rose in Mesoamerica beginning around 1500 BCE, and collapsed sometime about 300 BCE. The civilization developed important social and economic advancements that would be featured in the civilizations that followed. They created the region’s first irrigation systems, first cities, first religion, first pyramids, and the first system of writing. Experts know very little about the Olmec, but they do know they were prosperous, thanks to their exploitation of the fertile lands near the Gulf of Mexico. They created a highly developed agricultural system, growing crops such as corn and beans, and their environment provided other important food supplies, such as edible plants, palm nuts, fish, turtles, and clams. As a result, they were able to gather a food surplus, enabling them to construct permanent settlements. By 1200 BCE, the largest, San Lorenzo, was an important center of trade. Obsidian, jade, rubber, pottery, feathers, and polished mirrors made of magnetite were important trade goods. They were also known for their cultivation of rubber; in fact, the name “Olmec” means rubber people. Which characteristics are evidence of the Olmec civilization’s advanced agricultural system? Check all that apply. irrigation growing crops industrial machinery permanent settlements food surpluses chemical fertilizers
