Why did smaller states object to the virginia plan

Social Studies

nasty-shy [4]3 years ago

Smaller states objected to the Virginia Plan because the Virginia Plan tied each state's representation in the legislative branch to population. This meant that large states like Virginia would have more delegates while smaller states like Rhode Island would have had fewer. This led to the Great Compromise, creating our bicameral legislature where the House of Representatives is based on population and the Senate provides two seats to each state, regardless of population. 

Today, this means sparsely populated states like Wyoming will have little to no say in the House (they have only one Representative); however, they have just as much say in the Senate as New York since all states get two Senators no matter what.

What is one way that the Choctaw adapted to life out west
dedylja [7]

Answer:

Adapting to Survive

For economic reasons, some tribes, such as the Choctaw, began to raise more crops once they moved west. Crops gave them something to trade and sell. As a result, men spent more time working the fields, and they typically only hunted small animals.

vazorg [7]

Why did the american army want to control breeds hill??<br>​
olasank [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

If i remember correctly....

The Americans had gotten some information about the British wanting to take the hills for a tactical advantage. Of course I think both sides knew the advantage the other side would have if they had control of the hills. They were sent to Bunker Hill and made a mistake and ended up on Breeds hill, closer to where the British were positioned.

Anyways, I think it was more of Americans had to beat the British to it so the British didn't have the upper hand and the British had to take down the Americans, thinking they were going to shoot canons off the hill towards their troops and ships.

Hope this helps a little bit!
