Original Note:
The makeup of the Senate was meant as a compromise in order to gain buy-in from small states. Per Federalist 62: "A government founded on principles more consonant to the wishes of the larger States, is not likely to be obtained from the smaller States." https://guides.loc.gov/federalist-papers/text-61-70#s-lg-box-wrapper-25493449
