Articles of Confederation (1 März 1777 Jahr – 4 März 1789 Jahr)
Beschreibung:
The Articles of Confederation, adopted by the Continental Congress in 1777 and ratified in 1781, served as the first constitution of the United States, establishing a national government with a single legislative body. However, the Articles provided limited powers to the central government, lacking authority to regulate commerce or enforce tax collection, which led to significant governance challenges and eventually the drafting of the U.S. Constitution.
