The bigger states opposed the New Jersey plan and the smaller states opposed the Virginia plan. IDK which states liked/dislike the great compromise.
The New Jersey Plan suggested that the states should have an equal number of representitives. The Virginia Plan said the the number of representatives should be based on the state's population. Roger Sherman proposed that the Senate would have an equal number of representatives and the House of Representatives would have one representative for every 30,000 residents. This plan satisfied all of the states and became known as the Great Compromise.
The big state plan, or the Virginia plan called for states to be represented based on population, because Virginia as a state with a large population would consequently gain considerable influence under their own plan.
The Great Compromise was significant in that it established how our legislature is set up to this day. Originally it was intended to be one body, but large states like Virginia wanted representation based on population, whereas smaller states like New Jersey wanted representation based on the same number of delegates, regardless of population. The Great Compromise proposed having both, setting up our legislative bodies.
The Great Compromise, also known as the Connecticut Compromise, solved the issue of how the states were represented in congress. Resolved in the Constitutional Convention of 1787, the Great Compromise solved the problem of representation for smaller states by having Congress have two senators for the Senate and proportional representation in the House of Representatives, based on population of the state.
Connecticut compromise
it is called a bundle of compromises because it includes the Virginia plan and the New Jersey plan, satisfying each plan's followers and ideas. it satisfied the small and large states where in the senate the states are equally represented and in the house it is represented by population.
The major debate was how the states were to be represented in Congress. A compromise was made between the New Jersey plan and the Virginia plan that is our current system today. It satisfied both the small and large states. It is known as the "Great Compromise"
The Great Compromise, also known as the Connecticut Compromise, resolved the conflict between the Virginia Plan and the New Jersey Plan by establishing a bicameral legislature. In this compromise, the House of Representatives would be based on population, favoring larger states like those represented in the Virginia Plan, while the Senate would provide equal representation for each state, as called for by the New Jersey Plan. This balance allowed both large and small states to have a fair voice in the legislative process, ultimately facilitating the ratification of the U.S. Constitution.
The Virginia and New Jersey Plans were proposed during the Constitutional Convention of 1787 to resolve the conflict over how states should be represented in the new federal government. The Virginia Plan advocated for representation based on population, favoring larger states, while the New Jersey Plan called for equal representation for each state, favoring smaller states. The conflict was ultimately resolved with the Connecticut Compromise, which established a bicameral legislature with proportional representation in the House of Representatives and equal representation in the Senate. This compromise balanced the interests of both large and small states in the new Constitution.
The virginia plan and jersey plan!
They preferred the confederation system in which all states were represented equally.
How should states be represented in the legislative body?
The Great Compromise solved the debate created by the New Jersey Plan and the Virginia Plan. The New Jersey Plan was proposed by William Paterson in response to the Virginia Plan. The Virginia Plan wanted Congress to be based on population; states with larger populations would have more representation. Those states with small populations were against this idea. Their solution was the New Jersey Plan, which would give equal representation to all states. Both the Virginia Plan and the New Jersey Plan were not accepted. Instead, the Connecticut Plan, or the Great Compromise, was adopted. This created two branches in Congress. The Senate, which reflected the New Jersey Plan and gave equal representation to all states, and the House of Representatives, which reflected the Virginia Plan and gave representation to states based on population.
The Great Compromise, established during the Constitutional Convention of 1787, incorporated ideas from the Virginia Plan primarily through its proposal for a bicameral legislature. The Virginia Plan advocated for representation based on population, which was reflected in the House of Representatives, where states with larger populations would have more representatives. This compromise balanced the interests of populous states with those of smaller states, which were represented equally in the Senate, thereby ensuring a fairer system of governance.
The compromise that combined elements of the Virginia Plan and the New Jersey Plan is known as the Great Compromise or the Connecticut Compromise. Proposed by Roger Sherman, it established a bicameral legislature with a House of Representatives based on population (reflecting the Virginia Plan) and a Senate with equal representation for each state (reflecting the New Jersey Plan). This compromise helped to balance the interests of both large and small states during the Constitutional Convention of 1787.
The agreement that utilized elements from both the Virginia and New Jersey plans for state representation is known as the Great Compromise, or the Connecticut Compromise. This compromise established a bicameral legislature, combining the Virginia Plan's proposal for representation based on population in the House of Representatives and the New Jersey Plan's call for equal representation for each state in the Senate. This framework balanced the interests of both large and small states during the Constitutional Convention in 1787.
They were brought together by the great Connecticut compromise, which allowed for the senate to have equal representation through all the states and the house of representatives to be made up of few people and the more people in a state the more representatives they were allowed to have.
