Answer: a) It allowed each state to choose its delegates for the Senate, which established equal representation among the states.
Further details:
The Connecticut Compromise was a measure decided during the United States Constitutional Convention in 1787. Also known as "The Great Compromise," it resolved a dispute between small population states and large population states. It was important because it created a two-chamber legislature, with proportional representation in the House and equal representation for all states in the Senate.
The large population states wanted representation in Congress to be based on a state's population size. (This was the essence of the Virginia Plan.) The smaller states feared this would lead to unchecked dominance by the big states; they wanted all states to receive the same amount of representation. (This was the New Jersey Plan.)
The Great Compromise (aka Connecticut Compromise) created a bicameral (two-chamber) legislature, with different rules for representation in each chamber. Representation in the House of Representatives would be based on population. In the Senate, all states would have the same amount of representation, by two Senators.
1. The four states of United States that border Mexico are Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California. There are multiple similarities between these four states, be it in their geography or culture. The most striking similarities are that all of these four states have a very percentage of population that has Mexican ancestry, and that the Spanish language is commonly used, but at home and officially. There are two main reasons for this. One of them is that these states were once part of Mexico, so when the United States managed to conquer them, they encountered mostly Mexicans, which did not returned to Mexico but stayed in the United States. Another reason is that they border with Mexico, so the Mexicans that migrate toward the United States mostly end up in these states, or are there for at least some time.
2. The differences between these four states can be mostly seen in their economies and their cultures. The economies of these four states are all different. Texas for example is focused on the oil reserves, as well as large scale farming and ranching, while California is mostly focused on the tertiary sectors, such as its famous movie industry. The culture too differs in all of these states, which is actually a trait of any state in the United States as all of them have something specific about them. The Texans tend to be more rough, love weapons, and are much more conservative. The Californians tend to be much more libertarian, more easy going, and love the spotlight. The New Mexicans and Arizonians are not very open, they tend to be more closed and function in their communities, while not being very willing to engage with ''outsiders''.
