What are the good and bad aspects of equal representation?
I assume you are referring to how the states are represented in the federal legislature. The small states wanted equal representation; that is, they wanted all states, regardless of population size, to have the same number of votes in the congress. The large states argued in favor of proportional representation, where votes would be apportioned by the size of the population. The compromise was, of course, to have a bicameral legislature, one with two houses, one having proportional representation, the other having equal representation.

What kind of representation did small states want during the Constitutional Convention What kind of representation did large states want?
During the Constitutional Convention, small states wanted equal representation regardless of population size, advocating for each state to have the same number of representatives in Congress. This was exemplified by the New Jersey Plan, which proposed a unicameral legislature with equal representation for all states. In contrast, large states favored representation based on population, as proposed in the Virginia Plan, believing that this would ensure that their larger populations had a proportional influence in the legislative process. This conflict ultimately led to the Great Compromise, establishing a bicameral legislature with both equal and proportional representation.
