On the state level, the seats in both houses of the legislature are apportioned by population. Nevertheless, the bicameral state legislature means that any bill that is introduced must twice wend its way through a complex process of review, amendment, and approval.
The Great Compromise settled the method of representation in the legislative branch (the US Congress). Small states wanted equal representation (equality by state), and large states wanted representation based on population (equality by vote). Under the compromise, all states were represented equally in the Senate. This made the smaller states happy.
