The large states wanted representation based on population, and the small states wanted equal voting (1 vote per state). The large states made the Virginia Plan and the small states made the New Jersey Plan. In the end, their ideas were combined to form the Great Compromise. The Great Compromise stated that there were would be two parts of the legislative branch - a Senate and a House of Representatives. Each state got two senators and a certain amount of representatives based on the state's population.

The Northern states wanted to count slaves out of the population yet include taxes for them. On the other hand, the Southern states wanted to count slaves as part of their population (more representation in Congress) but without taxes. The states settled with the 3/5 Compromise, meaning that 3/5 of slaves would count towards population and taxes.

The Southern states were afraid that if the Northern states controlled states, they would not be able to have slaves. Therefore, the states settled with the Commerce Compromise. The Commerce Compromise stated that the federal government would control international trade, state governments would control interstate trade, and the abolition of slaves would be postponed for 20 years.
