Answer (2)

they weren't happy with how the articles of confederation were running the country, so they met to revise it but instead ended up making a whole new government, and they wrote the constitution.

The Constitutional Convention in 1787 aimed to address the flaws of the Articles of Confederation. Instead of merely revising them, delegates created a new United States Constitution that established a stronger federal government. This process involved significant debate and compromise, resulting in a government structure that included checks and balances to manage power effectively.
