The delegates at the Constitutional Convention met to revise the Articles of Confederation.

The Articles of Confederation was America's first constitution used after becoming independent from Great Britain. This constitution, however, was highly ineffective. This is due to the fact that there was no executive branch (aka no president), Congress did not have the ability to collect taxes, the state's did not have to follow national laws, etc. All of these factors resulted in a highly ineffective government that needed to be revised. This is why the delegates meet at the Constitutional Convention.

After much debate and attempts to change the Articles of Confederation, the delegates decided to start over new and develop a completely new US Constitution. This resulted in the current US Constitution we still use today.

DedPeter [7]

<em>The correct answer is the third one:</em>  The authors of the state constitutions had learned lessons that were useful in writing a new United States Constitution. Lessons learned in setting up state governments were helpful in setting up the United States government.

The state constitutions created the articles of confederation and it didn't have an executive branch and a judicial branch. The federal government was not allowed by state constitutions to control taxes. These mistakes were made before the US Constitution. So, government officials realize that they needed a stronger federal government.

<em>The Constitution (originally comprising seven articles) delineates the national frame of government. Its articles embody the doctrine of the separation of powers, the concepts of federalism, and establish the procedure subsequently used by the thirteen States to ratify it.</em>

During the years after reconstruction there were many groups of people whose civil and political rights were not upheld. Discuss
oksian1 [2.3K]
One group can be African Americans. Racist states found ways to prevent them from voting by imposing things like laws that force you to take a literacy test or similar. They also forbade them from working like regular workers by introducing the cropsharing system.

Another can be women. Women had been fighting for their political rights since before the war began. After it ended, they were still not given voting rights which lasted up until 1920s. Many women objected how African-Americans could be given voting rights and women

Third group can be Native Americans. After the war ended, the country could then start spreading westwards which had to be halted due to the war. More states began being added and this meant that Natives would have to move to reservations and their rights and land were being taken from them.
