In many ways, as author McGinty says, the Constitution was a hodgepodge, a collection of ideas based on northern or southern biases, agricultural or commercial interests, federalist or antifederalist sentiments. What kinds of compromises did the representatives of these divergent interests finally accept

The compromises accepted were Article V, the Great Compromise, the Electoral College compromise, and the three-fifths compromise.

Article V of the US Constitution enables the citizens avenues to amend the Constitution. The Framers of the Constitution, while drafting the Constituttion, added this article enabling the Congress and States to add or change amendment in the Constitution. Though the process is not easy, which is stated in the Article V.

The Great Compromise of 1787 was the compromise that took place between the large states and small states on the number of representative each state would have in the Congress, according to the Constitution. It is also known as the Sherman Compromise or the Connecticut Compromise.

The Electoral college was the compromise established by the Founding Fathers in the Constitution. The compromise was between election of the President by popular vote and vote in the Congress.

The Three-fifths Compromise was the compromise made at the 1787 the Constitutional Convention. In this compromise, the three-fifth of the African American slave population would be counted for taxation and representative in the House of Representatives.
