The main outcome of the Annapolis Convention, held in 1786, was a call for a broader convention to address the weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation. Although only a few states were represented, the attendees recognized the need for a more effective national government. This led to the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia in 1787, where the U.S. Constitution was ultimately drafted. The Annapolis Convention is thus seen as a crucial step toward the establishment of a stronger federal system.
