As part of the Connecticut Compromise, also known as the Great Compromise, it was decided that the national legislature would be bicameral, consisting of two houses. The House of Representatives would be based on proportional representation, with the number of representatives from each state determined by its population. In contrast, the Senate would have equal representation, with each state having two senators, regardless of its population size. This compromise balanced the interests of both populous and less populous states in the legislative process.
