The Great Comprise called Congress to have two houses. This compromise was made up of the Virginia Plan (large states) and the New Jersey Plan (small states). The Virginia Plan called for a bicameral house (two house) that is based on population. And the New Jersey Plan called for a unicameral house (one house) that would be based on equality.

The Congress decided to have two houses. One would be based on the population of the state, and one would be based on equality. The houses are called the House of Representatives and the House of the Senate. Each house have different jobs and responsibilities.
