At first colonists believed they could stay within the British empire and still retain their liberties. As colonist lost faith in the English Constitution, they realized they could only protect their rights by breaking off from the British empire. The Colonial Mind Most colonists believed that man was naturally corrupt and greedy and would continually try to seek power. This is why colonists believed that the English Constitution would not work; English politicians were corrupt. Colonists believed in natural rights

Roman Caposino September 3rd-9th, 2013 Chapter II Questions AP Government/Politics At the time of the Revolution, most colonists believed that English politicians tended to be corrupt, and therefore the English constitution by which these politicians governed was not an adequate guarantee of the liberty of the citizens. Colonists believed that their rights and liberties were supplied by God, and included life, liberty, and property. To the colonists, the revolution was a war of political liberties rather than economic issue. The weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation: The government could not levy taxes or regulate commerce. Each state retained its sovereignty and independence.

Tindall Ch7 Outline Shaping a Federal Union The Confederation Congress within the confederation had very little power to do anything. Was still able to negotiate the Treaty of Paris in 1783 and created three departments, Foreign Affairs, Finance, and War. Robert Morris, superintendent of Finance created the Bank of North America (1781). Did not really work because of fear of central authority, and Congress was always lacking money. Land in the west all went under the ownership of Congress, and they set rules for how each territory could become a state. The Land ordinance of 1785 planned how land would be distributed and sold. The Northwest Ordinance of 1787 put new requirements on achieving statehood.

Articles of Confederation vs. the Constitution ???? The following chart compares some of the provisions of the Articles of Confederation with those in the Constitution. It's important to note that most commentators see the Articles period (1781-1789) as a weak one in terms of governmental power. Whether that is a positive or negative for the United States depends on one's point of view regarding the size and influence of a national government. Some would view the Articles period as the pinnacle of American freedom, while those favoring a strong central government would see it as a failure. ?? ?? Articles of Confederation Constitution Levying taxes Congress could request states to pay taxes Congress has right to levy taxes on individuals Federal courts

APUSH Midterm Review Notes 2014 3/5 Compromise: the compromise that stated that a slave could count at 3/5 of a person in a population count that determined a state?s representation in the House of Representatives Anne Hutchinson & Antinomianism: Anne Hutchinson was a woman in the Massachusetts Bay Colony that had a strong belief that disagreed with the Puritan idea of predestination. Hutchinson held weekly discussions in her house after Church, where Church members could discuss the sermon. Her extreme beliefs caused it to become evident that she believed in Antinomianism, a view that the Puritans held as dangerous, and believed that God could intervene at anytime to save a person, thereby disagreeing with predestination.

The Articles of Confederation and the U.S. Constitution are two very different documents set out to achieve a somewhat similar goal. The goal of the Article of Confederation is to create a loose union. It ended up that the state held most of the power. The U.S. Constitution was designed in an effort to repair the problems caused by the Articles of Confederation and the problems that still remain unaddressed.
