the Bill of Rights was added after the war and after there was no freedom for people with the new constution. The articles of confederation were not working out for our new country.
It was added December 15, 1791.
The Bill Of Rights is the name given to the first ten amendments to the US Constitution. They were passed by the House of Representatives in 1789 and eventually accepted as Constitutional Amendments on December 15th 1791, when Congress (about 75% of the States) ratified the legislation. Clearly anyone who feared an oppressive central government could find comfort in the Bill of Rights. Also, any foreign government or foreign people or press could see by these first ten amendments that the new American government guaranteed many rights that many European governments did not guarantee.
The Bill of Rights of the United States Constitution was adopted by the House of Representatives in 1789, and completed the process of being ratified by the States on December 15, 1791.
The Bill of Rights had to be added to get the states to agree to ratify the Constitution.

The Bill of Rights of 1689, passed by the British Parliament in that year, does NOT have amendments (and, frankly, needs no translation or interpretation, as it is quite straightforward). Perhaps the questioner was instead thinking of the 2nd Amendment to the United States Constitution (part of the first 10 amendments commonly referred to as the Bill of Rights) ???
1689. It served as a model for the US Bill of Rights.
The Bill of Rights is the first ten amendments to the Constitution, which were added even before the Constitution itself had been adopted in 1787. In fact, had the Bill of Rights not been written, it's likely that the Constitution itself would not have been ratified.
In 1789, the same year the Constitution was made. The 1st amendment is in the Bill of Rights, and many states refused to even ratify the Constitution until the Bill of Rights was added.
Im not sure, but it was not George Washington, George was president after the constitution was created, that includes the bill of rights. So who ever was still in power from the Articles of Confederation...

The Fifth Amendment to the US Constitution is one of the original 10 amendments that are known as the "Bill of Rights", which were included with the Constitution. The Bill of Rights were added to provide INDIVIDUAL rights to the American People, since most of the Constitution itself was occupied with detailing how the GOVERNMENT itself was set up. Many founding fathers, such as Thomas Jefferson and John Adams, fought for the addition of the Bill of Rights to the Constitution, because they felt that unless you spelled out the rights for the common man, the government would grow to be tyrannical, just like the British crown they'd just fought to overthrow.
