Drafting our Government: The Articles of Confederation

The year being 1777 and with war with Britain continuing, the Americans needed to come up with the idea of what happens next if we win. Burdened with the dawning notion that they would have the "walk the walk" on the liberal values they espoused to prompt the revolution, they must decide how to define a practical yet non tyrannical government as the foundation for what their country will look like. Delegates will grapple with ideas of democracy and republicanism, as they set out govern their increasingly emancipated lands.
