The Articles of Confederation was the supreme law of the new
United States of America.

Unfortunately, it was not working well. The Articles were
too weak to fix problems between states, and it didn’t give the U.S. government the
power to tax.

So state leaders decided to meet in Philadelphia in May of 1787 to
try to fix the Articles of Confederation. They soon
realized they needed to start over. This meeting became known as the Constitutional
Convention.

Delegates debated about how the new government should be set up. They worked on it until September. There were many
compromises made.

states ratified, or approved, it.

Even though the Constitution was the new supreme law of the
United States, many people were worried it did not
guarantee people their rights.

So in 1791, lawmakers added a list of ten amendments, or changes to a law, to the
Constitution.

This list of amendments is called the Bill of Rights. They list the rights that belong to all United
States citizens.

Farmers in western Pennsylvania tested the power of the new federal government
in 1794 by refusing to pay a high tax on whiskey. This
became known as the Whiskey Rebellion.

George Washington sent 13,000 militia to western Pennsylvania
to confront a group of rebels causing trouble.

laws.
