Also known as the Great Compromise, this established a bicameral legislature ([[Congress]]). The upper house ([United States Senate|[Senate]]) was to contain two votes per state, with [[Senators]] chosen by state legislatures. The lower house ([[House of Representatives]]) was based on population, with representatives chosen by the people. The Great Compromise also called for the Articles to be completely replaced.
