The Virginia Plan was a proposal presented at the Constitutional Convention of 1787 that advocated for a strong national government with a bicameral legislature, where representation in both houses would be based on a state's population. It was primarily designed to benefit larger states, as they would have greater influence due to their larger populations. The plan was drafted by James Madison and endorsed by delegates from Virginia, reflecting the interests of states with significant populations and economic resources. Ultimately, it set the stage for debates on representation that led to the Great Compromise.
