During America's Founding Period, the Articles of Confederation of 1781 served as one of the primary bases for the writing and ratification of the Constitution from 1787 to 1789. In numerous particular ways (for example, the membership and powers of Congress), the Articles provided key touch-points by which the Constitution would be drafted.
