The Articles of Confederation proved to be a failed form of government due to its inability
to respond to issues efficiently, especially at the national level. The founding fathers of
the United States met in Philadelphia to address these concerns. During what came to
be known as the Constitutional Convention two sides or differing factions evolved. One
side, the federalists, argued for a stronger national government and the other side, the
antifederalists argued to keep the national government small. Many issues were debated
and settled during the convention. Analyze and explain the few of the compromises that
were settled at the convention, also discuss the role each faction played in the final draft
of what would become our new constitution.
