The Great Compromise is a compromise regarding the formation of a new constitution between large and small countries. It solved many problems years back then.  

EXPLANATION

The Great Compromise which is also popularly known as the Sherman Compromise happened in 1787. It is an agreement reached during the Constitutional Convention in 1787 between delegations from countries with large and small populations which then determine the structure of the Congress and the number of representatives each country has in Congress based on the United States Constitution.

1. Problem

The biggest debate between the delegates at the time of the Convention centered on how many representatives each country had to have in the making of new government law. So, the Great Compromise was needed to resolve the debate. At the beginning of the Constitutional Convention, the delegates visualized a Congress consisting of only one room with a specific number of rooms and representatives from each country.

2. Alternative

Under a proposal submitted by a Connecticut delegation named Roger Sherman, Congress will be "bicameral" or a two-chamber with each state getting the number of representatives in the lower house (The House) in proportion to its population and having two representatives in the assembly height (The Senate).
