Answer: Small states are easier to manage politically, while large states are more likely to be corrupt.

Explanation:

During the Constitutional Convention of 1787, large states claimed to deserve more of a voice due to their larger populations, so they demanded congressional representation to be based on population.

Smaller states, fearing being ignored if that happened, wanted equal representation.

Roger Sherman, based on the idea of small states being easier to be handle politically, and large states being more prone to corruption, proposed the Connecticut Compromise with Oliver Ellsworth, which granted equal representation in the Senate and representation by population in the House, in a bicameral system that provided a balance of power.
