The government was purposely made weak in order to protect the citizens from a tyrannical ruler coming to power (like King George III). However, the Articles miserably failed, and was replaced by the Constitution.

What did King George I do with the Constitution letter?
King George I didn't have anything to do with the American Revolution. It was King George III, in which he did nothing. He was not sent a copy of the Constitution which set up a new form of government replacing the older Articles of Confederation. You might be thinking of the Declaration of Independence, which stated that the residents of the Colonies no longer considered themselves subject to the English Crown. He was not sent a personal copy of this either.
