states
People created a WEAK central government back then so that the states could have the majority of the power because they didn't want another ruler ruling over them. The articles of Confederation were made to be a loose aliance between the states, most people felt loyal to their states, and not the country as a whole. The Articles of Confederation did not work out, the Shay's Rebellion made the congress realise that. So, they created the constitutional Convention to amend the constitution, but the delagates ended up creating a whole new Constitution instead, which is the U.S Constitution.

I would choose the answer, "It brought the Atlantic coast and the Pacific slope ten days nearer to each other." That line speaks of shortening the time frame for the communication of messages by means of the Pony Express riders. That falls in the category of "rapid transit." Today we have even more rapid means of transit, from automobiles and trains to airplanes and jets. We also have instantaneous communication of messages coast to coast and globally by electronic means -- a different form of "rapid transit" in the communication sector.
