Question

As a part of a compromise at the constitutional convention, what was to be abolished twenty years after the constitution was verified?
A. The option to increase the domestic tax rate
B. The institution of slavery
C. The slave trade
D. The option to increase the tariff rate

Answer 1

Correct answer = C The Slave Trade
The tricky answer here is "B The Institution of Slavery". The reason this is incorrect is because the compromise was not that slavery itself would be abolished, but that slaves would no longer be imported to the United States.
