If you are referring to the U.S. government (as opposed to a specific state's government) there are two possible answers. There are several states that have only 1 representative in the House. More generally, Senators represent a whole state.

How do states with smaller populations have more electoral votes then larger states?
Because they have more people that were born in the United States living there. You can't vote if you weren't born in the United States. Because they have more people that were born in the United States living there. You can't vote if you weren't born in the United States. The larger state probably has more people that was not born in that state than the smaller state that has born citizens so that's why its more electoral than the larger state.

Would you capitalize the word pharaoh in a sentence?
I believe it's more like Mom and my mom. When you are directly referring the person it would be capitalized. For example: "I said hi to Mom today." "I said hi to your mom today." If you're referring to the literal person named "Mom" it would be considered a proper noun, you're name for that particular person is "Mom". Same for the word "pharaoh". "I asked Pharaoh about the famine." "Should I ask the pharaoh about the famine?" "Pharaoh" is a title, not unlike "captain" or "commander". If you were to say: "I asked the captain why the boat was headed for the iceberg", you wouldn't capitalize "captain". If you said "I asked Captain Smith why the boat was headed for the iceberg", you would capitalize "Captain". On the other hand (and this is where it gets sticky), if your audience knows that you are referring to a specific person with a specific title (the Queen, for example, meaning Queen Elizabeth II), then I would capitalize it. If you're just referring to any old queen in a generic sense, you wouldn't capitalize it.

Why do some states have more representatives than other states in the us?
The number of representives of a state is based on the states population. The higher the population the more reps the state gets. A smaller populated state would therefore have less reps then a state with a higher population.
What plan would states with large populations prefer?
Without clarifying the context, such as what these plans apply to, this question is unanswerable. If you are referring to the plans for the US Constitution, then the smaller states preferred that all states have an equal vote in the Congressional Houses.
