Large and small states
The Great Compromise, or the Connecticut Compromise, pleased both the small states and the large states because it gave them both the representation they wanted. In the lower house (the House of Representatives), the small states got the proportional representation they wanted. In the upper house (the Senate), the large states got the equal representation they wanted with every state getting two senators.
The Great Compromise settled the method of representation in the legislative branch (the US Congress). Small states wanted equal representation (equality by state), and large states wanted representation based on population (equality by vote). Under the compromise, all states were represented equally in the Senate. This made the smaller states happy. In the House of Representatives, representation was based on population. This pleased the bigger states.
The Compromise called for Congress to consist of two houses instead of just one. One would give each state the same number of votes (Senate) the other would have votes determined by population. This tended to even out the voting strengths between the large and small states so that the larger states would not be able to impose their interests on the small states.
Roger Sherman's great compromise of 1787, was an agreement between small and large states reached during the Philadelphia convention of 1787; That in part defined the legislative structure and representation that each state would have under the united states government/constitution.

The main focus of the Great Compromise at the Constitutional Convention concerned how states were to be represented in the U.S. Congress. It is also referred to as Sherman's Compromise.
The "Great Compromise" between the large States and Small States was that there would be a Bicameral House. Witch meant that there will be two houses one for the large states and one for the small states. One of the houses was called the Senate and the Other House Of Representatives ( House Of Reps ). The Senate Was giving to the Small States witch was for the equal right they wanted . The House Of Reps Was giving to the big states with gave them what they wanted the votes by population especially with 3% of the slaves they had.
