Sovereignty is the answer
<span>Prince
Shotoku Taishi (574 to 622) of Yamato era acclaimed the throne after the rule
of Empress Suiko and is said to be a member of the imperial clan. In his reign,
he had institutionalized new constitution basing on the Chinese model in which
they have adopted its calendar, religious practice in Confucianism and Taoism
and spread Buddhism across Japan. Shinto, a religion based on actions and
focusing on rituals became a connector between the present and past lifestyle
of Japan. China has also greatly influenced its ethics and philosophy. The Seventeen-Article
Constitution has established political rules such as fair trials and officials
obeying the reign of the monarch.</span>
The Articles of Confederation was first created after the Revolutionary War. It was the first Constitution for the new nation, and it gave the states more power than the central government. It's purpose was to prevent a monarchy like the colonies had experienced with Great Britain before the US won its independence.
The Virginia Plan called for a house of representatives, much like the one today, which would represent states based on population.
The issue with this, is that the larger states would have MUCH more power over government then the smaller states, (see the New Jersey plan), the compromise was met with the 2 house system, the House of Representatives matching the Virginia plan and the Senate matching the New Jersey plan.
