The most controversy came
over the way the
|
|
legislature would be set up to represent the citizens,
|
|
and how much representation each state would have in
|
the
national legislature.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Smaller
states were adamant that if representation
|
|
|
|
|
|
was decided by population, they would lose the rights
|
and voices they fought for in the American
|
|
Revolution.
|
|
|
|
Larger
states worried that a state of fewer people
|
|
|
|
|
|
could conceivably have more representation than a
|
|
state with more people.

|
After much debate, the delegates were
|
|
able to compromise . . .
