On May 14, 1787, the Constitutional Convention convened in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Delegates from twelve of the thirteen states (Rhode Island did not attend) gathered to address the shortcomings of the Articles of Confederation and to draft a new constitution for the United States. This pivotal meeting ultimately led to the creation of the U.S. Constitution, which established the framework for the federal government and remains in effect today.
