The Virginia Plan, presented by James Madison during the Constitutional Convention of 1787, advocated for a bicameral legislature where representation would be based on population size. This plan suggested that states with larger populations should have more influence and representation in both the House and the Senate. The idea was to create a system that reflected the demographic diversity and size of each state, ensuring a more proportional representation in the national government. Ultimately, this proposal contributed to the development of the United States Constitution and the compromise that led to the establishment of the current Congress with a House of Representatives based on population and a Senate with equal representation for each state.
