The Great Compromise, aka the Connecticut Compromise, used parts of both the Virginia Plan (legislative apportion by population) and the New Jersey Plan (equal representation for each state) by creating a bicameral (two-house) US Congress. The upper house, the Senate, has 2 senators from each state regardless of population, while the House of Representatives is apportioned by state population.
The Great compromise was made between larger and smaller states. Also known as the Connecticut Compromise, it asserted the bicameral legislature which made a house based on population and a house based on statehood equally weighted.
