during the constitutional convention, disagreement over how to count enslaved people was settled by the
commerce and slave trade compromise.
great compromise.
southern compromise.
three - fifths compromise.
The Commerce and Slave Trade Compromise focused on regulating the slave trade, not counting enslaved people for representation/taxation. The Great Compromise resolved legislative structure (bicameral Congress) between large and small states. The "Southern Compromise" is not a standard term for this specific issue. The Three-Fifths Compromise explicitly settled the dispute by counting each enslaved person as three-fifths of a person for both representation in Congress and direct taxation.
