Question

During the Constitutional convention small states did not want their representation based on medication location condition or population

Answer 1

The answer is population.


Small states wanted everyone to have equal representation no matter what the size or population. Large states wanted representation based on population. As a result they came up with the Great Compromise which is how we have the House of Representatives and the Senate today. The House's number of representatives are based off of a states' population and the Senate has 2 representatives in every state.
