The Great Compromise, also known as the Connecticut Compromise, was a pivotal agreement reached during the Constitutional Convention of 1787. It reconciled the interests of smaller states, which favored equal representation in Congress, with those of larger states, which sought representation based on population. The compromise led to the establishment of a bicameral legislature, with the Senate providing equal representation (two senators per state) and the House of Representatives based on population. This balanced approach helped facilitate the drafting and ratification of the U.S. Constitution.
The Constitutional convention and Compromises include the three-fifths compromise, the Great Compromise was between the small states, the Commerce Compromise, Slave Trade Compromise, and the election of the President.
