The Articles of Confederation
Task
| After the Declaration of Independence was passed on July 4, 1776, the Second Continental Congress organized a committee led by John Dickinson to write our country's first plan for government. That document was called the Articles of Confederation. What influence did John Dickinson have on that document? The Articles of Confederation was ratified and became the law of the land for a short period of time. What kind of government was set up by the Articles and what powers did that government have? What were some of its strengths and weaknesses? What event finally brought about its demise? Today our plan for government is the Constitution. How does that document compare with the Articles of Confederation? Why has it been so successful when the Articles of Confederation was not. This webquest will help you answer the questions above and give you more insight about our first plan of government, the Articles of Confederation. |
