The Virginia Plan was a plan purposed by Virginia for a bicameral legislative branch. Other states, some Southern, were opposed to this because of the amount of voters each state would get.
The Virginia Plan (aka Randolph Plan) for a bicameral US Congress would have benefited "larger" mainly Southern states whose populations (even without counting slaves) exceeded those of smaller Northern states. Both houses would have representation based on population. The Connecticut Compromise gave all states equal representation in the US Senate, and the population of the North, bolstered by immigration, eventually caught up to the South.
In exchange for Southern votes, promised to support locating the national capital on the banks of the Potomac River, the border between the two southern states, Virginia and Maryland.

The Great Compromise solved the debate created by the New Jersey Plan and the Virginia Plan. The New Jersey Plan was proposed by William Paterson in response to the Virginia Plan. The Virginia Plan wanted Congress to be based on population; states with larger populations would have more representation. Those states with small populations were against this idea. Their solution was the New Jersey Plan, which would give equal representation to all states. Both the Virginia Plan and the New Jersey Plan were not accepted. Instead, the Connecticut Plan, or the Great Compromise, was adopted. This created two branches in Congress. The Senate, which reflected the New Jersey Plan and gave equal representation to all states, and the House of Representatives, which reflected the Virginia Plan and gave representation to states based on population.
Virginia plan
the strengths of the Virginia plan was to create a 3-branch legislature consisting of a two-chamber, bicameral legislature, a powerful executive branch and a judicial branch. The Virginia plan did not give equal representation to all states. It benefited the southern states for protecting slavery. This plan practically eliminated the voices of the smaller states by pegging representation in both houses of the congress to population.

big populated states
The Virginia plan called for representation based on population. Virginia was one of the largest states at the time.
No, the Virginia plan called for representation by population. This put Virginia at a huge advantage (being one of the most heavily populated states) while giving states such as Rhode Island almost no representation.
