Interesting Things with JC #1837: "America's First Constitution" — On November 15, 1777, the Continental Congress adopted the Articles of Confederation, giving 13 newly independent states a national government that could declare war and negotiate treaties but couldn't directly tax citizens or regulate interstate commerce. The system helped secure American independence and establish new states, yet its financial and constitutional weaknesses eventually drove the creation of a stronger federal government.
