The correct chronological sequence is:
2- Declaration of Independence
4- Articles of Confederation
1- US Constitution
3- Bill of Rights
In 1776, the United States declared itself as an independent nation, breaking out of the Kingdom of Great Britain's power.
After that, in 1781, the 13 original states of the United States came up with the Articles of Confederation, that served as their first constitution.
In 1787, during the Philadelphia Convention, the United States constitution was written and in 1789 ratified, replacing the Articles of Confederation.
The Bill of Rights was created in 1789, and ratified in 1791, and composes the ten first amendments to the US Constitution.
