In this video Heimler takes you through Unit 3 Topic 8 (3.8) of the AP U.S. History curriculum which is set in period 3 (1754-1800).

When it was apparent that the Articles of Confederation was took weak a document to govern the newly minted United States, delegates from the states met at the Constitutional Convention to hash out a new Constitution.

One of the most significant debates regarding the new Constitution was with respect to representation. Neither the Virginia Plan nor the New Jersey Plan satisfied the delegates, and so the Great Compromise took the best parts of each plan and melded them together.

Also regarding representation was the question over how the enslaved population (especially of the South) would be counted for representation. The compromise became known as the Three-Fifths Compromise.

Ultimately the new Constitution of the United States was ratified by the states thanks in large part to the tireless efforts of Federalists like Alexander Hamilton and James Madison (the Federalist Papers), over against the objections of the Anti-Federalists.

If you have any questions, leave them below and Heimler shall answer forthwithly.
