The Three-Fifths Compromise, which meant as slave ownership was legal and most of the southern states own slaves. Due to the representatives they needed to have, only three-fifths of the slaves in each state would add up to the population.

Another compromise was the Great Compromise or the Connecticut Compromise which stated to create a bicameral or two houses to represent the states by population, the house of representatives and equally which was the senate.
