Question 2 • MI-Government/Civics
The Great Compromise combined ideas from the Virginia Plan, which favored representation based on population, and the New Jersey Plan, which favored equal representation for each state. It created a bicameral Congress: representation in the House is based on population, while every state has equal representation in the Senate. Therefore, it combined key elements of the large-state and small-state plans.
