ARTICLES OF CONFEDERATION
Before the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia in 1787, several reform efforts highlighted the need for a stronger national government. The Articles of Confederation, established in 1781, proved inadequate as they granted limited powers to the federal government, leading to economic instability and interstate conflicts. Events such as Shays' Rebellion in 1786 underscored the weaknesses of the Articles, prompting calls for reform. The Annapolis Convention in 1786 also aimed to address trade and economic issues, setting the stage for the more comprehensive discussions at the Philadelphia Convention.

The government never helped them
Shays' Rebellion, which occurred in 1786-1787 in Massachusetts, was a significant uprising of farmers protesting economic injustices and the lack of government response to their financial struggles. The rebellion highlighted the weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation, particularly the inability of the federal government to maintain order or address economic issues. As a result, it convinced many leaders that a stronger central government was necessary to prevent such uprisings and ensure stability, leading ultimately to the Constitutional Convention in 1787.
