Explanation:

The Credit Mobilier of America scandal was a political scandal that began in the early 1870s. The scandal involved a construction company called Credit Mobilier of America, which did construction work for the state-subsidized Union Pacific Railroad. Several congressmen were shareholders in Credit Mobilier of America, which raised suspicions that the participating congressmen had used their position in Congress to undermine the regulatory oversight of the company. Although several congressmen were involved in the scandal, only two congressmen were eventually found guilty of the case.

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.
