The Articles of Confederation were a set of documents that were created to form a national government for the United States in 1781. In 1787, the people of the Continental Congress realized that the Federal Government mandated by the Articles was to weak to get taxes or order the states around. 55 representatives of the states drafted the US Constitution in 1787 and created the government we know today. There was no president.
