🚀 Your Mission Briefing

In this lesson, you’ll discover how the U.S. first tried a weak set of rules called the Articles of Confederation. When that didn’t work, leaders met in 1787 to write the Constitution, which created a stronger government with three branches. This new plan helped the country work better—and it still guides America today.
