Answer:

The Virginia Plan was a proposal to establish a bicameral (two-branch) legislature in the newly founded United States. Drafted by James Madison in 1787, the plan recommended that states be represented based upon their population numbers, and it also called for the creation of three branches of government. While the Virginia Plan was not adopted in full, parts of the proposal were incorporated into the Great Compromise of 1787, which laid the foundation for the creation of the U.S. Constitution.

The states that supported the Virginia plan were large states like New york. The representatives knew that the provisions would give large states more influence in congress. Sen. Chistopher D. Martin(D-Ga) as well as Virginia, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, South Carolina,...

The New Jersey Plan was a proposal for the structure of the U.S. federal government put forward by William Paterson at the Constitutional Convention in 1787. The proposal was a response to the Virginia Plan, which Paterson believed would put too much power in large states to the disadvantage of smaller states. The small colonies supported the New Jersey Plan. They favored this plan because it proposed a Congress that was unicameral (having one house) and each state would have the same number of representatives or votes.

The Great Compromise, also known as the Connecticut Compromise, the Great Compromise of 1787, or the Sherman Compromise, was an agreement made between large and small states which partly defined the representation each state would have under the United States Constitution, as well as in legislature. It occurred in 1787. The Connecticut Compromise resulted from a debate among delegates on how each state could have representation in the Congress. The Great Compromise led to the creation of a two-chambered Congress. Also created was the House of Representative which is determined by a state’s population. The agreement retained the bicameral legislature, but the upper house had to change to accommodate two senators to represent each state. The deal reshaped the American government structure striking a balance between the highly populated states and their demands while at the same time taking into consideration the less-populous state and their interests.

Which compromise established that territory from the Louisiana Purchase above 36°30' would be free from slavery?
DIA [1.3K]

Missouri Compromise

The Missouri Compromise split the Louisiana Territory with the North being free from slavery and the South being allowed to have slavery.

The issue of slavery was a rising concern and with each state entering into the Union the balance of slave and free states was skewing. With a new land mass to be concerned with, the government needed a compromise to deal with new states coming into the Union in an effort to maintain slave v. free states. Missouri was entered as a slave state and Maine entered as a free state. The compromise also set the 36'30 line splitting Louisiana Territory. The compromise would last until 1850.
