How do you use the great compromise in a sentence?

One such sentence would be this: "The Great Compromise was implemented during the Constitutional Convention, and solved the problem of representation in the legislature by creating two legislative bodies: the Senate and the House of Representatives."

A sentence with it could be "When they couldn't decide on how representation should be accounted for in the new country, they decided to accept the great compromise as a solution." This was about how states should be represented in the government and with how many members. The number of people was important for the house of representatives, and they decided to have a bicameral structure where one house would always have the same number while the second would vary based on the size of the state.
