Well, simply put, the Constitution created a stronger federal government. In order to understand this, you have to understand that the colonial leaders did not want another king...so they created a government where the central (aka federal) was pretty weak. The states had all the power. The problem was that every state was allowed to anything their own way and there no agreement from one to next about how to do anything...including money. The money Ga was no good in SC. Laws concerning the same subject were entirely different from one state to the next. So instead of "The United STates" you had "The 13 Separate Countries" because that was what each state really was...a separate country from its' neighbors. Obviously, that was not going to work.
