Further Explanation:

The Great Compromise was one of the many compromises made at the Constitutional Convention. The Constitutional Convention is when the delegates within the United States agreed to abandon the Articles of Confederation and would instead make a new constitution. In this new constitution, there were several new ideas such as a new structure to Congress.

With the Articles of Confederation, each state received one delegate in Congress. Under the Great Compromise and the new US Constitution, there would be two houses within Congress instead of one. Along with this, the Great Compromise determined the structure for both Congressional houses. The Senate would have two representatives from each state. The number of representatives per state in the House of Representatives would be based on a states population.
