In 1787 delegates from the thirteen states convened in Philadelphia to replace the unwieldy Articles of Confederation with a Constitution to endow the federal government with sufficient power to hold the country together. This short document, which was a result of both high idealism and low political horsetrading, has survived a Civil War and the massive expansion of the country to become the oldest constitution in the world. The Constitution itself, however, merely describes the functions of the federal government. It was left to ten Amendments, known as the Bill of Rights, to protect individual freedoms.

Robotics is another field where Americans want to excel with the help of best education which we provide.Robotics will help us automate our industries & to increase our industrial output so that we too can decrease our product cost like China and compete with China in Export Industry in the world.

Digitisation and automation is another field where we want to excel too with the help of top education system in the world.5G is another thing which we want to start as early as in 2019 and be at the top of the world.High internet speed will solve many of our problems which we face today eg.a surgery can be done with the help of a normal surgeon in a remote place with the help of 5G & a top doctor sitting in New York & instructing personally using Hologram ( using 5G technology) .
