    The Virginia Plan was for the larger states and the New Jersey plan was for the smaller states. It was over representation in the Legislative Branch (Congress). The larger states wanted representation based on population because they had slaves. The smaller states wanted equal representation because their population was smaller without the slaves. Congress ended up with 2 houses the Senate with equal representation of 2 per state and the House of Representation based on population. This was called the Great Compromise.
