What & When: In 1789 the U.S. Constitution
replaced the Articles of Confederation and
created a stronger federal government. It
established the three branches of
government, outlined how to add changes to
the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights
explained the rights of the people.
Cause: The Articles of Confederation had
not proven strong enough for a growing
country like the U.S. who needed a
government with more central power to be
able to enforce its laws.
Effect: It was not easy to get delegates to
agree on the design of the new government
in the planning process that took place
during the Constitutional Convention.
Significance: The Constitution that was
created during this time has endured and is
still the highest law in the land today.
