Yes, the Virginia Plan was written before the Great Compromise along with the New Jersey plan. The Congress decided to take some ideas from the Virginia Plan and some from the New Jersey Plan to create a plan that worked for both of them, and as a result, the Great Compromise was created.
Yes it was. Because it settled the New Jersey and Virginia plan. =]
The proposal to form a bicameral congress instead of a unicameral one was proposed in the Virginia Plan. It was drafted by James Madison in 1787.
The Virginia Plan had more influence on the Great Compromise than the New Jersey Plan. It proposed a strong national government with a bicameral legislature based on population, which aligned with the interests of larger states. The Great Compromise ultimately merged elements from both proposals, establishing a bicameral legislature with proportional representation in the House and equal representation in the Senate. This compromise addressed the concerns of both large and small states, but the foundational structure was primarily shaped by the Virginia Plan.
