Virginia
The New Jersey plan had one house based on equal representation of each state while the Virginia plan had two houses based on the states population.
The New Jersey plan (APEX)
Virginia plan
Unicameral and Bicameral house
The Great Compromise resolved the dispute over the New Jersey and Virginia plans. The Virginia Plan wanted representation to go by population. The House of Representatives resolved this issue, using population to determine how many representatives a state would receive. The New Jersey Plan wanted equal representation for all states. The Senate resolved this issue by allowing the same number of representatives to all states, regardless of their size.
The differences between the Virginia Plan and the New Jersey Plan were settled through the Great Compromise, also known as the Connecticut Compromise. This agreement, reached during the Constitutional Convention of 1787, established a bicameral legislature with proportional representation in the House of Representatives (reflecting the Virginia Plan) and equal representation in the Senate (reflecting the New Jersey Plan). This compromise balanced the interests of both larger and smaller states, allowing for a more unified framework for the new government.
The New Jersey and Virginia Plans primarily differed over the structure of legislative representation. The Virginia Plan favored representation based on population, which would benefit larger states, while the New Jersey Plan advocated for equal representation for each state, ensuring that smaller states had an equal voice. This fundamental disagreement highlighted the tension between populous and less populous states during the drafting of the U.S. Constitution. Ultimately, these differences were resolved through the Great Compromise, which established a bicameral legislature with both proportional and equal representation.
