During the American War of Independence, the Continental Congress served as the national government. Established in 1775, it acted as a de facto national authority, coordinating the colonial war effort, managing foreign relations, and ultimately adopting the Declaration of Independence in 1776. The Articles of Confederation later formalized this governance structure, though it was not ratified until after the war concluded in 1781.
