In 1791, the United States added the Bill of Rights to the Constitution, which comprises the first ten amendments. These amendments were designed to protect individual liberties and limit the powers of the federal government, addressing concerns raised by Anti-Federalists during the ratification debates. Key rights guaranteed include freedom of speech, religion, and the press, as well as the rights to bear arms and to a fair trial.
