There were two competing plans for the creation of Congress in the early days of the United States. The Virginia Plan based representation on population, which would advantage the more populous states, while the New Jersey Plan would advantage the smaller states due to each having the same representation. The compromise was the Connecticut Plan, which created a bicameral legislature that took each plan and put it into effect in one half of the overall branch of government.
