In all the decisions I have made in my public life, I have always tried to do what was best for the Nation. Throughout the long

and difficult period of Watergate, I have felt it was my duty to persevere, to make every possible effort to complete the term of office to which you elected me.
In the past few days, however, it has become evident to me that I no longer have a strong enough political base in the Congress to justify continuing that effort. As long as there was such a base, I felt strongly that it was necessary to see the constitutional process through to its conclusion, that to do otherwise would be unfaithful to the spirit of that deliberately difficult process and a dangerously destabilizing precedent for the future.

But with the disappearance of that base, I now believe that the constitutional purpose has been served, and there is no longer a need for the process to be prolonged.

—President Richard Nixon

poizon [28]

Answer:

The Articles of Confederation, sanctioned in 1777 by the Continental Congress, were the first fundamental norm of the United States, just after the American Revolution had begun and the independence of the nation from Great Britain was declared.

Through these Articles the political structure of the United States was organized, which established a collegiate government through the Congress of the Confederacy, which was made up equally by a representative from each of the 13 states of the country.

However, when it was proposed to modify this situation, the less populated states spoke out against it. This was so because the most populated states proposed a system of proportional representation based on the population of each state, with which the smaller states would see their political power reduced compared to larger states, such as Virginia or Massachusetts.
