Large states favored the Virginia Plan because it proposed a congressional representation system based on population, which would allow them to wield more political power relative to smaller states. This plan aimed to create a stronger national government with a bicameral legislature, where both houses would reflect the population size of each state. Consequently, larger states stood to gain greater influence in legislative decisions and the shaping of national policy.
