Answers

Answer: Rome becoming a republic.

The Roman Republic was an era in the history of classical Roman civilization. The then small state of Rome was previously governed by kings. However, in 509 BC, the people overthrew the government. They established a new system of government: a republic, which was intended to be more responsive to the needs and the will of citizens. The Republic lasted until 27 BC, when the Empire was established. The Republic was a period of great expansion, during which Rome came to dominate the entire Mediterranean.
Rome became a republic. This happened in 509BC. That was before everything else. 

Why did the Great Compromise and the Three-Fifths Compromise involve so much debate and discussion?

Answers

There are several reasons why the Great Compromise and the Three-Fifths Compromise involved so much debate and discussion, but mainly because slavery was so contested and nobody wanted the government to have too much power. 

Answer:  Because each state was looking out for its personal interests in regard to representation in Congress.

Details:

The Great Compromise and the Three-Fifths Compromise both focused on  the representation of states in Congress.   Both of these compromises were devised during the United States Constitutional Convention in 1787.  

  • The Great Compromise resolved a dispute between small population states and large population states.  The large population states wanted representation in Congress to be based on a state's population size.  The smaller states feared this would lead to unchecked dominance by the big states; they wanted all states to receive the same amount of representation.  The Great Compromise created a bicameral (two-chamber) legislature.  Representation in the House of Representatives would be based on population.  In the Senate, all states would have the same amount of representation, by two Senators.
  • The Three-Fifths Compromise was a way of accounting (somewhat) for the population of slaves in states that permitted slavery.  For taxation and representation purposes, the question was whether slaves should count in the population figures.  (They were not considered voting citizens at that time.)   The Three-Fifths Compromise said that three out of every five slaves could be counted when determining a state's population size for determining how many seats that state would receive in the House of Representatives.
