Abstract or Introduction
During the Revolutionary War, the thirteen colonies that made up America did not have a central government and were only just forming independent state government. Through the first and second Constitutional Congress’, America united in its resistance against Great Britain and adopted policies to abolish English authority over the colonies. This Continental Congress called for the colonies to form their own independent governments and they appointed five men to a committee to draft the declaration of independence. On July 4, 1776 the Constitutional Congress adopted the declaration of Independence which proclaimed the independence of America from the crown. However, now that the United States was a free nation, how should the new government be set up?
