The Framers of the Constitution created a bicameral legislature consisting of two houses: the House of Representatives and the Senate. This structure was established to balance the interests of both populous states and smaller states, with representation in the House based on population and equal representation in the Senate, with each state having two senators. This compromise aimed to ensure fair legislative representation and prevent any single entity from gaining too much power.
