7. How do governments change?

Government has changed over time by changing how many people are in control of the government. It started with a few people in charge.  they limit what they could do. Then it was 1 person in charge, now they have to have advisers to make a decisions.

in february 1787, congress decided that a convention should be convened to revise the articles of confederation, the nation’s first constitution. in may, 55 delegates came to philadelphia, and the constitutional convention began. debates erupted over representation in congress, over slavery, and over the new executive branch. the debates continued through four hot and muggy months. but eventually the delegates reached compromises, and on september 17, they produced the u.s. constitution, replacing the articles with the governing document that has functioned effectively for more than 200 years.
