The Virgina Plan was to separate the government into the three branches. It favored larger states. It was created by James Madison.

The New Jersey plan supported the small state delegates, it was created by William Patterson.

The main issue that was trying to be solved was with the representation as the smaller states wanted equality in it.

The three-fifths compromise hovered around the topic of slavery which was common in colonial america. The larger states wanted their slaves to be used in the population that contributed to the amount of delegates they sent to congress. So it was decided that three fifths of the slave population of that state was to be used in the deciding for the delegates.

The Federalists supported the constitution and wanted it ratified, opposed to Anti-Federalists who didn't want it ratified.
