"The convention met from September 11 to September 14, 1786. The commissioners felt that there were not enough states represented to make any agreement. New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and North Carolina had appointed commissioners who failed to arrive in Annapolis in time to attend the meeting, while Connecticut, Maryland, South Carolina and Georgia had taken no action at all. -They produced a report which was sent to the Congress and to the states. The report asked support for a broader meeting to be held the next May in Philadelphia. It expressed the hope that more states would be represented and that their delegates or deputies would be authorized to examine areas broader than simply commercial trade. -It is unsure how much weight the Convention's call carried, but the urgency of the reform was highlighted by a number of rebellions that took place all over the country."
It's C, BTW.
