Were there presidents before the constitution?

Answer 1

Yes there was.

The colonies were governed by British colonial rule, which was carried out by governors for each colony appointed by the English crown. The First Continental Congress was formed even before the revolution to coordinate the colonies' relations with England. It also provided for an army and navy and appointed George Washington as Commander in Chief of the American Forces. The Second Continental Congress was responsible for the writing of the Declaration of Independence. After the Revolution, the Articles of Confederation were drafted and served as the basis for governing the United States. This form of government was not very successful, so a committee was given the task of improving it. Instead, they scrapped the Articles and wrote the Constitution in 1787.
