Answer:

The Connecticut Compromise (also known as the Great Compromise of 1787 or Sherman Compromise) was an agreement that large and small states reached during the Constitutional Convention of 1787 that in part defined the legislative structure and representation that each state would have under the United States.

The proposal at the Constitutional Convention that called for representation of each state in Congress in proportion to that state's share of the U.S. population. Opposite of the Virginia Plan, it proposed a single-chamber congress in which each state had one vote.

Compromise made by Constitutional Convention in which states would have equal representation in one house of the legislature and representation based on population in the other house the agreement by which Congress would have two houses, the Senate (where each state gets equal representation-two senators) and the House of Representatives (where representation is based on population).
