The United States of America decided on a bicameral legislature mainly for the fact that it would keep the powers balanced. The threat of tyranny from a republic is just as great as one from a single despot. The bicameral system allowed for the two houses to balance the powers of government, while giving as little power possible to the executive branch for fear of kings.
