equal representation
The Connecticut Compromise is often called the Great Compromise of 1787. This led to the bicameral Congress of the United States where the House of Representatives would work on behalf of local constituencies, and the Senate would work on behalf of the states.
Main problem was the representation of large and small states. In the Great Compromise, the House of Representatives representative number would be by state population, while the Senate representative number was a fixed 2.
The Great Compromise, also known as the Connecticut Compromise, settled the argument between the large states and the small states during the Constitutional Convention of 1787. Large states favored representation based on population, while small states wanted equal representation for each state. The compromise established a bicameral legislature, with proportional representation in the House of Representatives and equal representation in the Senate. This arrangement balanced the interests of both groups and was crucial for the ratification of the U.S. Constitution.

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 involved both houses of Congress. It based the number of representative in the House of Representatives on population and the number of Senators on a set number per state. It was a compromise between the large states and small states.
The Great Compromise allowed the framers of the Constitution to create a Congress that would represent both large and small states fairly. It is also known as the Connecticut Compromise.
The "Great Compromise" between the large States and Small States was that there would be a Bicameral House. Witch meant that there will be two houses one for the large states and one for the small states. One of the houses was called the Senate and the Other House Of Representatives ( House Of Reps ).

The House Of Reps Was giving to the big states with gave them what they wanted the votes by population especially with 3% of the slaves they had.
