The correct answer is C) a confederal government that limited government powers.
The phrase that best describes the form of government created by the Constitutional Convention of 1787 is "a confederal government that limited government powers."
The Constitutional Convention was held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania from May 14 to September 17, 1787. The delegates were present to make important decisions such as the kind of government that America needed. The delegates were there to modify the Articles of Confederation that created a weak central government. The 55 delegated had serious debates on the issue because the federalist led by Alexander Hamilton supported the creation of a strong central government, but the anti-federalists, led by Thomas Jefferson, did not approve the idea of a strong central government because it could turn into tyranny.
