The document discusses the events leading up to the American Revolution and the establishment of the United States government. It describes the growing tensions between the American colonies and Britain due to new taxes like the Stamp Act. This ignited opposition throughout the colonies and the belief that Parliament did not have the right to tax them. In response, the colonies began establishing their own governments and declaring independence. After the Revolution, the Articles of Confederation were adopted but were too weak, leading to the drafting of the U.S. Constitution in 1787 to create a stronger central federal government and limit the power of the states.

Forming A Government
The document summarizes key ideas from Chapter 7 of an American history textbook about the formation of government after the American Revolution. It discusses the ideas of limited government that influenced the writing of state constitutions and Articles of Confederation. The Articles of Confederation established a weak central government with limited powers like negotiating treaties. It also established how the Northwest Territory could become states, including banning slavery, to expand the nation in a way that addressed land issues and future statehood.
Articles of Confederation
The Articles of Confederation established the first governing framework for the United States after the American Revolution from 1781-1788. However, the Articles proved largely ineffective, as Congress had no power to tax or regulate commerce between the states. Mounting political and economic problems, such as Shays' Rebellion and the inability to pay war debts, prompted leaders to hold the Constitutional Convention to establish a stronger federal government.
Articles of confederation
Under the Articles of Confederation, the federal government had limited powers and could not tax, regulate trade, or enforce laws. This led to financial and domestic problems. The Constitutional Convention established a stronger federal government with three branches and a system of checks and balances. Key compromises included the bicameral legislature, electoral college for electing the president, and counting slaves as 3/5 of a person. The new Constitution established a stronger federal government but also led to the emergence of the first political parties.
The Articles of Confederation
The Articles of Confederation established a weak central government for the United States after the Revolutionary War. Power was held mainly by the individual states, which considered themselves sovereign. The central government could not levy taxes, regulate interstate commerce, or enforce laws. It also lacked an army. This was demonstrated by Shays' Rebellion in Massachusetts, which the central government could not respond to militarily. The weaknesses of the Articles' government ultimately led to calls for a new, stronger federal constitution.
The Articles Of Confederation
The document discusses the Articles of Confederation and the problems that arose under that first form of government for the United States. It describes the limited powers granted to the national government and the states' dominance over certain matters. Key issues that weakened the Articles included the inability to tax, lack of control over economic matters, and foreign relations problems due to the nation's lack of unity. The Northwest Ordinance established a process for admitting new states and was one of the Articles' greatest achievements.
Week 2, Colonial Political System
The document summarizes the different types of colonial political systems in British North America: royal colonies, charter colonies, and proprietary colonies. Royal colonies were directly ruled by the English monarchy and had governors appointed by the king. Charter colonies were granted self-governance through a royal charter and could elect their own governors. Proprietary colonies were granted to proprietors who had full governing rights and appointed governors. All colonial governments had a governor with executive power, a legislature consisting of an elected lower house and appointed upper house, and followed certain basic principles like elected legislatures and democratic systems, though not all citizens could vote.

The American Revolution can be viewed from two perspectives: traditionalists saw it as fought for liberties Americans believed they possessed as British citizens, while radicals saw it as a transfer of power from distant British elites to a new American power class. Great Britain faced major problems due to the immense costs of governing the colonies from far away and the vast new territory that was difficult to control. Taxes like the Sugar Act and Stamp Act angered colonists under the slogan "no taxation without representation" and led to events like the Boston Massacre and Boston Tea Party. In response, Britain passed the Intolerable Acts, further angering colonists and leading to the formation of the First Continental Congress to petition the Crown for restored rights.

The American Revolution began as a result of growing tensions between the American colonies and Great Britain over taxation without representation. Britain had accumulated large war debts after the French and Indian War and began imposing taxes on the colonies through acts like the Stamp Act and Townshend Acts. The colonies protested these taxes by arguing it was unjust to tax colonists without allowing them to have elected representatives in Parliament. Matters came to a head with the Boston Tea Party in 1773, after which the Second Continental Congress assumed leadership of the independence movement and ultimately issued the Declaration of Independence in 1776, establishing the United States.

The document discusses the Articles of Confederation, which was the first attempt at a federal government for the United States after independence from Britain. However, it only lasted from 1781-1788 before being replaced by the Constitution. The Articles of Confederation established a very weak central government with limited powers. It did not give the federal government the ability to tax, regulate interstate commerce, or maintain a standing army. This proved ineffective and contributed to the drafting of the Constitution to create a stronger federal government.
Foundations of american government
The document provides background on the foundations of American government from colonial times through the early national period. It discusses [1] life in colonial America and the road to revolution in the 1700s, [2] the rise of republicanism and opposition to strong central rule, and [3] the origins and weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation, the first constitution of the United States. Events like Shays' Rebellion showed the need for a stronger national government, leading to the Constitutional Convention and a new Constitution.
Chapter 9
The Articles of Confederation failed to provide a sufficient constitution for America for several reasons:
1) Congress had no power to enforce laws or collect taxes from the states, leaving the government without money or means to pay debts.
2) The structure of equal representation for each state in Congress, regardless of population size, led to conflicts between large and small states.
3) Economic disputes between states with ports and those without convenient ports caused dissatisfaction and discord.
The new Constitution was proposed to address these critical flaws by creating a stronger federal government with balanced powers between states and the central authority.
3 articles_of_confederation-shays_rebellion-2016.ppt
The document discusses the Articles of Confederation and the weaknesses that led to its replacement. It describes how the Articles gave most power to state governments and Congress lacked authority. This caused economic problems as states issued their own currencies and set independent trade policies. It also discusses Shays' Rebellion where farmers protested taxes, showing support for reform. The weaknesses of the Articles created calls for a stronger federal government with the power to levy taxes, regulate commerce, and more.
The First National Government, 1777 1789
The document summarizes the key aspects of the Articles of Confederation, including that it created the first national government of the 13 colonies as a "league of friendship" with limited powers. It established Congress as the sole national body but with limited authority over areas like war, treaties, currency and postal service. Congress faced weaknesses due to its inability to tax, regulate commerce, or raise armies independently of states. This framework proved inadequate and led to calls for reform, including the Constitutional Convention to draft a new governing document.
3. shaping a new nation [1782 1788]
The Federalists argued that the Constitution established a balanced government that protected individual rights through separation of powers and checks and balances, while the Anti-Federalists believed it gave too much power to the central government and lacked protections for individual liberties. A compromise was reached with the addition of the Bill of Rights, which addressed many of the Anti-Federalist concerns and helped secure ratification in several key states.
2 origins of american government
The document provides background on the origins of American government. It discusses how the early colonists brought English common law and traditions of representative government. The Articles of Confederation created a weak central government with strong state powers. This led to conflicts between states during the Critical Period. At the Constitutional Convention, delegates debated plans and reached compromises to create a new Constitution with three branches of balanced government. The ratification process faced opposition from Anti-Federalists concerned with strong federal power, until the Bill of Rights was included to gain approval from all 13 states.
6 the constitution and the new republic· framing a new governme
The document summarizes the key events surrounding the creation of the US Constitution in 1787. It discusses how the Constitutional Convention was called to address weaknesses in the Articles of Confederation, and the major issues debated, such as representation and slavery. A series of compromises were reached, including the Connecticut Compromise which created a bicameral legislature. The final Constitution that emerged created a stronger federal government with three branches but did not address all issues like citizenship or a bill of rights.
The Articles Of Confederation
The Articles of Confederation gave Congress certain limited powers but had major weaknesses, including no national taxation or courts. Two ordinances established procedures for settling and governing the Northwest Territory. However, Shay's Rebellion showed the need for a stronger national government. Delegates at the Constitutional Convention replaced the Articles with a new Constitution that established three branches of government and granted Congress new powers like taxation. It also included compromises on representation and slavery.
Ch01 ppt
This document provides an overview of the historical development of constitutional rights in the United States. It discusses how the US Constitution was influenced by other systems like the Magna Carta that limited a ruler's power. As the American colonies grew, tensions with British rule led to the Declaration of Independence in 1776. The Articles of Confederation created a weak central government, showing the need for a stronger system like the US Constitution to balance state and federal power.
The creation of new governments
This document provides an overview of the creation of new governments following the American Revolution. It describes how the Articles of Confederation created a very weak national government with limited powers, leading to problems like financial troubles, inflation, and Shays' Rebellion. This convinced leaders that a stronger Constitution was needed to address problems facing the early United States. The new Constitution strengthened the national government by creating separate branches, allowing amendments, and giving powers like taxation and regulation of commerce.
The Articles of Confederation
The Great Compromise and the 3/5 Compromise were both essential compromises that helped the delegates agree on a final Constitution, but I believe the Great Compromise establishing our bicameral legislative branch is still the most important structurally for our government today. The Senate representing states equally and House representing population proportionally was a key foundation for the checks and balances in our system.
Gov T Chapter 2 A
The document provides an overview of the origins and development of American government from the English political system through the ratification of the US Constitution. It discusses the key influences on the founding fathers including the Magna Carta, English Bill of Rights, writings of Locke, and Enlightenment ideas. It then summarizes the major compromises reached at the Constitutional Convention, including the Connecticut Compromise and Three-Fifths Compromise, that helped address disagreements between large and small states and northern and southern states. The ratification process involved debate between the Federalists and Anti-Federalists over the role and powers of the national government.

State Constitutions, 1776–1780 117
“Could Americans design a government able to provide liberty
and strong enough to protect that
liberty?”
By 1783, the nation was offi-
cially independent, but it had
three immediate problems:
(1) it had amassed a huge
debt from fighting for inde-
pendence; (2) it suddenly had
vast lands to control in the
West; and (3) it had to recre-
ate a system of trade after
England’s protections had
been withdrawn. These problems were intensified because the ideology that had pro-
pelled the revolution—republicanism—strenuously warned against a strong central
authority, and most Americans were repelled by the idea of a home-grown authoritar-
ian yoke. They wanted their day-to-day freedoms. They wanted the liberties promised
in the Declaration of Independence. Which begs the obvious question: What were those
freedoms, and, just as important, what price were people willing to pay for them? Could
Americans design a government able to provide liberty and strong enough to protect
that liberty?
This was a primary concern from the moment the colonists declared their inde-
pendence in 1776. Their first attempt to find an appropriate balance (through a govern-
ment established under the Articles of Confederation) proved unsuccessful. The Articles
made the federal government too weak to address the nation’s pressing needs. By 1787,
Americans had scrapped the Articles and designed an entirely new structure of govern-
ment. This new government, as defined in the United States Constitution, placed more
power in a central authority than most Ame ...
Chapter 2 – Origins of American Government
The document discusses the origins of colonial governments in America and their development towards independence. It explains that the colonists brought ideas of ordered, limited, and representative government from key English documents like the Magna Carta. As British policies tightened after 1760, the colonies began coordinating opposition and took steps toward independence and self-government. This led to the American Revolution and the formation of state governments based on popular sovereignty. However, the weak national government under the Articles of Confederation prompted the Constitutional Convention of 1787 to draft a new Constitution establishing a stronger central government through compromises.

The Jesuit Relations
The Jesuit Relations constitute the most important set of documentary materials on the 17th century encounter between Europeans and Native Americans in North America. The annual reports of French Jesuit missionaries provide detailed descriptions of native cultures and customs, as well as information on colonization efforts. The Jesuits focused their missionary work on the Huron, Iroquois, Montagnais and Algonquin nations. Their reports offer insights into native ways of life before increasing European influences like epidemics and trade disrupted traditional practices and worldviews.
Spain
The Spanish Empire originated in the 15th century as Spain sought to expand its territories for defense, trade, and spread of Christianity. Key events included the union of Castile and Aragon, the conquest of Granada in 1492, and Columbus' voyage. At its peak, the Empire spanned Europe, the Americas, Africa, Asia, and Oceania. Spain conquered the Aztec and Inca empires for their gold and silver. The Empire extracted wealth but also sought to convert natives to Catholicism, often through violent means. It established viceroyalties in Mexico and Peru to administrate its overseas colonies until independence movements in the early 19th century. However, the Empire had a disastrous impact on native populations
England
The British Empire originated from trading posts and colonies established by England in the late 16th and early 17th centuries. At its height, it was the largest empire in history and a global power for over a century. The empire comprised territories ruled by the United Kingdom through colonization and administration. The Caribbean initially provided lucrative colonies through sugar and slave plantations. England also established colonies in North America beginning with Jamestown in 1607 and settlements in Canada and other regions were founded to exploit natural resources and expand trade networks. Relations with indigenous populations varied between early cooperation that later deteriorated as English settlers increasingly forced native groups off their lands through treaties and warfare.
French
France began establishing colonies in North America, the Caribbean, and India in the 1600s, following the successes of Spain and Portugal. French colonial efforts were driven more by state, church, and military interests rather than business. Key French colonial possessions included Canada, Caribbean islands, Louisiana, and parts of India. France lost most of its first colonial empire due to wars with Britain during the 1700s and early 1800s. The fur trade was an important early industry for New France, with the French establishing trading relations with various Native American groups while attempting to convert them to Catholicism.
Portugal
Portugal established one of the earliest global empires through its naval explorations along the coast of Africa beginning in 1419 and reaching India by 1498, establishing trading posts and colonies. At its height, the Portuguese Empire spanned territories in South America, Africa, India, and Southeast Asia. However, Portugal's empire declined after being dragged into conflicts by its Iberian Union with Spain from 1580 to 1668, and it gradually lost its overseas territories over subsequent centuries.
