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 established the way the Legislative branch of our government would be set up. It combined the Virginia Plan, and the New Jersey Plan, creating the House of Representatives, and the Senate. It's important because it guarantees no state, regardless of population, has more power than any other.
Virginia, which was a relatively gargantuan state, believed that states should be given more or less representation in government based on size. New Jersey, which was a relatively miniscule state, believed in equal representation in government. In the end, the Great Compromise was made. This established the two separate houses that we still have today.
It was important because it led to the creation of the senate and the House of Representatives.
The Great Compromise was necessary because had it not happened, the Constitutional Convention would have disintegrated.
