Answer:

Some Northern states were worried about giving the government so much power.

Explanation:

The Constitution of the United States is the most important legal document in the United States of America. The Constitution was created on September 17, 1787 by the Philadelphia Constitutional Convention and is currently the oldest federal constitution in the world. It was ratified by the states with the name of “We the people”.

The Constitution had to be ratified by 9 out of the 13 states in special conventions. The Antifederalist threatened the ratification of the U.S. Constitution due to fear of giving too much power to the national government, thus leading to tyranny. The Antifederalist sentiment was strong in the South with small farmers and people that were not wealthy like most Federalists and feared that trade and rights would be hammered by a strong central government. However, there were concerns as well in the North, for this reason, in order to convince delegates to vote for it, Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay wrote what is known as the Federalist Papers. In the end, the Constitution was ratified on June 28, 1788, being Delaware the first state to do so on December 7, 1787.
