No, the articles of confederation can't solve this problem. Actually, three colonies laid claim to the present area of the State of Vermont: the Province of Massachusetts Bay, the Province of New York and the Province of New Hampshire. On March 5, 1740, King George II ruled Massachusetts's northern boundary in this area and reduced the dispute to New York and New Hampshire. On July 20, 1764, King George III established the boundary between New Hampshire and New York along the west bank of the Connecticut River. Finally, the dispute was solved on January 15, 1777, when representatives of the New Hampshire Grants convened in Westminster and declared their land an independent republic. On June 2, a second convention, the delegates adopted the name "Vermont" on the suggestion of Dr. Thomas Young of Philadelphia, a supporter of the delegates. On July 4, the Constitution of Vermont was drafted and adopted by the delegates on July 8 after four days of debate.
