The Congress of Delegates was created by the Articles of Confederation, which were drafted by the Second Continental Congress in 1777 and ratified in 1781. The Congress aimed to provide a framework for a national government, with delegates representing the individual states. However, it was ultimately ineffective and was replaced by the current United States Congress established under the Constitution in 1789. The shift was driven by the need for a more robust federal government to address issues that arose under the Articles.
The Continental Congress was a convention of delegates from the Thirteen Colonies that became the governing body of the United States during the American Revolution.
