America initially created a weak central government due to fears of tyranny and a desire for individual liberties following independence from British rule. The Founding Fathers aimed to prioritize state sovereignty and empower local governance, reflecting their experiences under a distant, overreaching monarchy.

The weaknesses highlighted by this framework eventually prompted the drafting of the U.S. Constitution, establishing a stronger central government.
