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.
