What were the goals of the writers of the state constitutions?
@Kfins99 Help ME please.
In the United States, each individual state has its own constitution which outlines how that state is to be governed and the rights of its citizens. The writers of each state's constitution goals were different depending on the state but all had to fall within the bounds of the federal constitution.
How are you so smart?! @Kfins99
I'm not XD
Really?!
I have another question to ask. :D
Go for it!
Alrighty! State constitutions made which branch of government the most powerful?
The Legislative Branch
:O and you say your not smart...

3.) What plan for a national government did congress adopt in November 1777?
The Articles of Confederation
I was gonna say Virginia Plan..
The Articles of Confederation were adopted by Congress on November 15, 1777. The Articles established the federal system of government
4). What could Congress do and not do under this plan.
Is this an essay type question?
No ma'am/sir.
Sir* Is it multiple choice?
No Sir.
Wait it is an essay kinda thingymagigga
Congress was able to: Wage war, make peace, borrow money, conduct foreign affairs, control trade with native Americans, postal system, and pass laws with only 9 votes Congress was not able to: Enforce laws and tax
I'm jealous..
5).When did the confederation formally become the government of the United States?
When the country first established itself (which was after the Articles of Confederation). The Continental Congress ruled during the rebellion then ruled the USA once it was established after King George III signed the 13 treaties with the independent states. It voted to dissolve the "permanent" union (so many problems that the states demanded and got the right to secede from the new constitution) in 1789 when the US Constitution took affect and a two-house legislature established.
Here's the next one, Who proposed the 1784 plan to divide the western territory into self-governing districts?
Thomas Jefferson
What did the Ordinance of 1785 establish?
1. It surveyed the land in the Northwest territory 2. It mandated that one square mile of land was set aside in all townships for a school. 3. It allowed for land to be sold by the government with the money going to help pay off the national debt.
What area did the Northwest Ordinance create?
The territory included all the land of the United States west of Pennsylvania and northwest of the Ohio River. It covered all of the modern states of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, and Wisconsin, as well as the northeastern part of Minnesota. The area covered more than 260,000 square miles (673,000 km²).
So the answer is...
The Northwest Territory....
Ok..
