Virginia Plan--3. Called for bicameral legislature; 5. Called for proportional representation; 6. Was supported by larger states
New Jersey Plan--1. Called for equal representation; 2. Was supported by smaller states; 4. Called for a unicameral legislature
The Virginia and New Jersey Plans were proposals of how to handle the issue of a federal legislature and how representation would be determined for the legislature. The Virginia Plan called for two houses: an upper and lower and representation based on population. This plan would best serve the states with larger populations because they would have more say in the government. However, this plan would shut out the voices of smaller states. The New Jersey Plan suggested a one house legislature with each state having equal representation. Essentially they wanted to keep the same system created under the Articles of Confederation. This would give all states a say but not all voices would be counted. Ultimately, the Connecticut Compromise or Great Compromise settled the issue by creating a bi-cameral or two house legislature with one house having equal representation and the other house having representation based on population.

Explanation:
"Mao Zedong and the Chinese Communist Party came to power by defeating Chiang Kai-shek’s party, the Kuomintang, <u><em>not in an election but through a long civil war.</em></u><u>
</u>
The civil war began in 1927, when Chiang Kai-shek launched a lethal attack on the communist-led workers’ movement in Shanghai — the Shanghai Massacre. That massacre was the start of a huge anti-communist purge, with at least hundreds of thousands killed. But some Communists survived and launched a series of uprisings against Chiang Kai-shek’s régime.
Mao became the leader of the Chinese Communist Party at a meeting in the town on Zunyi in January 1935. The meeting was held at a time when the Communist Party had lost its biggest stronghold (the Jiangxi base area in southern China), and was struggling to avoid complete destruction.
With Mao Zedong as leader, the Communists were able to fight their way to the north-west, and regroup in Shaanxi province. In 1949 they captured Beijing and Chiang Kai-shek’s forces retreated to the island of Taiwan.
At a speech in Beijing in 1949, Mao said “The Chinese people have stood up.” Could he have won the war against Chiang Kai-shek without the support of the Chinese people?"
