The Great Compromise
The Great Compromise, or the Connecticut Compromise, pleased both the small states and the large states because it gave them both the representation they wanted. In the lower house (the House of Representatives), the small states got the proportional representation they wanted. In the upper house (the Senate), the large states got the equal representation they wanted with every state getting two senators.
The Great Compromise, also known as the Connecticut Compromise, sought to balance the interests of both large and small states. It established a bicameral legislature, with the House of Representatives favoring large states through representation based on population, and the Senate providing equal representation for all states, thus benefiting small states. Overall, it can be seen as a compromise that included elements from both sides, but the structure of the Senate gave small states a significant advantage in terms of equal representation.
Large states= House of Reps where the number of reps depended on the population Small states= Senate where each state is given two representatives Together they make Congress! Hope I helped :) btw, you spelled great wrong...
The main focus of the Great Compromise at the Constitutional Convention concerned how states were to be represented in the U.S. Congress. It is also referred to as Sherman's Compromise.
Yes, he did.
There is a house for both the small states and the big ones.
