The 55 delegates to the Constitutional Convention created the U.S. Constitution. On the final day of the convention, September 17, 1787, thirty eight of them signed the Constitution. The Constitution went into effect the next year, after it was ratified by nine states. The key pieces included the checks and balances and separation of powers: * Between the federal and state governments (and later the Bill of Rights asserted individual rights) * Within the federal government powers were split between executive, legislative, and judicial branches * Within the bicameral legislative branch powers were split between the House of Representatives, in which the representatives were apportioned according to each state's population, and the Senate, in which each state would have two senators. Unlike the Articles of Confederation, the national government can levy taxes directly onto citizens and industries.

While the Articles of Confederation would have given jurisdiction to states to settle interstate commerce issues, the Constitutional compromise was putting the decision in the hands of Congress, bringing up questions of Congressional limits.
