4.After the Constitution was signed, the only problem left was to ratify the Constitution. There were two sides to this, the Federalist and Anti-Federalist. The issue was that the two sides had diferrent decisions. The Federalists' arguement was that they wanted a strong central government divided into three branches with balanced power. The Federalists also beleived that the Constitution didn't need a Bill of Rights because they thought the document was already defined in the Constitution. On the other hand the Anti-Federalists didn't want a strong central government because they thought that it would take away the rights of the people that were fought during the Revolutionary War. They also thought that the Constitution needed a Bill of Rights so that the people had some protection from the government. To end these compliments the two sides went on another meeting and decided to add the Bill of Rights later on 1791. Also the Constitution was ratified after Rhode Island voted for it in 1790. At that time most Americans liked the idea of the Constitution and it's three branch government.
 * 1) 1. The Constitution was made of the Articles of Confederation. The Articles stated that the structure of government would be divided into three branches. However the government lacked an executive branch and it was made only by a one house legislature. The strengths of the government were that the government had the power to form a small army. Another strength was that it had the power to borrow money, issue currency, and maintaining its forces armed. Also it had the power to give responsabilities to the thirteen states. Although the government had many strengths the government also had many weaknesses. These included the lack of an executive and judiciary branch. Also nine of the thirteen states were required to abolish any law. Another confict was that the people that fought in the Revolutionary War weren't getting paid. Also the money borrowed for the war wasn't getting paid back. So to pay off the war Congress decided to raise taxes on farmers. But the South plantations were damaged so the farmers didn't have money to pay the taxes. To result the farmer's land began to be taken away so the farmers rebelled which were led by Daniel Shays. The colonial troops had no option but to shoot at the farmers. Terrified by this incident, colonial leadres decided to rewrite the Articles of Confederation. **2** . a. Great Compromise: The issue of the great compromise that was debatable was the idea of a new government that established two legislative branches. These were named as Senate and House of Representatives, this was known as the lower house. The two perspectives of this were to keep the same government or the government that included help, to decide things better. The delegates finally ended up agreeing with each other and ended up using Roger Sherman's idea.
 * **b** . Three-Fifths Compromise: The issue was about if the slaves should be counted in the population or not. The south wanted the slaves to be worth equally in the population as the a normal person. The North wanted a slave to be counted as 3/5 of a man. If the slaves were counted equally then the might lose political power. Finally they ended up choosing that a slave should be worth as 3/5 of a man.
 * **c** . Importation of slaves: The issue was to stop or continue slave importation. First the North wanted to abolish slavery. The South was dependent about slavery and were against to abolish slavery. They didn't do anything with the slave importation until 1808.
 * 3. When it came to the articles of confederation, there were teo different types of people. There were federalists, people who agreed with the articles. And then there were anti-federalists, people who were against the articles. Federalists agreed with the articles because it never anyone too much power. The reason anti-federalists were against the articles was because it did not include the Bill of Rights. People who were with the articles were James Madison, Governor Morris, Alex Hamilton. People against the articles were Edmund Randolph William Patterson.
