Benjamin Franklin was born in Boston in 1706 and ended his formal schooling at age 10. He went on to write for his brother's newspaper and publish Poor Richard's Almanack. As one of America's most famous Enlightenment thinkers, Franklin was also a prolific inventor who helped shape the modern world and grew increasingly involved in politics from the 1750s onward, founding the Pennsylvania Academy, which later became the University of Pennsylvania. An interesting fact is that Franklin first proposed the idea of daylight saving time in 1784.

Notes 1 the confederation era

However, the Articles of Confederation established the first national government with limited powers, leaving most authority to the states. Several issues with this system emerged, including an agrarian rebellion in Massachusetts sparked by high state taxes, demonstrating the need for a stronger central government that could collect taxes and regulate interstate matters.
