What is a conflict & compromise in history? I'm looking for something that has to do with slaves or something

Answer 1

Sounds like you know exactly what you're looking for.

Go on Wikipedia and look for an article on the Missouri Compromise. Or something.

Answer 2

I'll take a stab at this.
Conflict - Slavery in the South and not the North in the American colonies. U.S. Constitution drawn up in 1787. Slave trade would end at a fixed time (1808). African Americans would count as three fifths of a person for population counts.
That was the initial compromise at the founding of the United States.
1820 Conflict over admission of Missouri to the union. "Missouri Compromise" - Missouri can become a state with slavery, but thereafter no states above (north of) the lower border of Missouri could be slave states.
1848 Mexican war adds new territory. Conflict over additional states - slave or non-slave. Results in the Compromise of 1850 which is a temporary fix at best.
Later in the 1850s the compromises break down with the conflict over slavery or non-slavery in Kansas. This sets the stage for the Civil War.
1860 - Lincoln elected as a Republican president thought to be representing northern anti-slavery interests. The South finds this intolerable. No more compromise. Issue decide by bloody conflict.
The main reason for the Civil War is the unwillingness of both sides to continue compromising.

Answer 3

3/5ths compromise at constitutional convention in 1787 southern planters wanted to coun slaves as a whole person for representation in congress, ironically the northerners argued that since they would not allow slaves to vote why count them, they compromised by deciding to count each slave as 3/5ths of a person., missoury compromise of 1820 that decided about slavery in missouri and no slavery north of 36 30. then the Compromise of 1850 that decided about slavery in newly aquired terriotories from mexico.
