The most serious disagreement in the debate between large and small states at the Constitutional Convention was the issue of representation. Small states feared that their voices would be lost if representatives were chosen based on population, while big states didn't think it was fair that the small states would have as much influence as they had.

How did the post - war era french revolution and the constitutional convention reveal and foreshadow the existence and growth of sectional and class differences in the US?

The existence and growth of sectional and class differences in the United States were in fact revealed and also 'foreshadowed' in various ways by events after the (American rather than French) Revolutionary War in the 1780s. The 1787 Constitutional Convention, for instance, highlighted yet again the increasing difference between Southern mindsets and Northern, with 'class' distinctions showing up as significant between convention-delegates as well as within the home-regions of those same delegates.


What was the major disagreement between the Northern states and the Southern states?

The major disagreement between the Northern and Southern states in the United States primarily revolved around slavery and its expansion into new territories. The North, characterized by a more industrial economy, generally opposed slavery and sought to limit its spread, while the agrarian South supported and depended on it for their economy and social structure. This conflict extended to issues such as states' rights and economic policies, ultimately leading to heightened tensions that contributed to the Civil War.
