Constitution: BAlancing Competing Interests

heyy i have that same sheet that everyone keeps talking about. it states the fears of early americans and you have to say what they put into the constitution to calm the fears and what was the source of the fears... they are:

fear of large states
fear of the people
fear of a weak central government
fear of an unwritten word
fear of other states
fear of foreign powers
fear of strong executive
fear of losing individual rights

i got the source for the last one but not the calming part... any help?

For the calming part of the last one, I would say the Bill of Rights.

People feared the large states because acc. to he Virginia Plan, their representation in Congress would be dependent on pop. Obviously, the smaller states wouldn't get their say, so the New Jersey plan was made to make representation equal in Congress.
