The State delegates met in 1787 so as to institute another constitution, established through the Constitutional Convention of 1787.
Further Explanations:
The first constitution of the US was not much effective and many modifications were required to be done. The articles constituted in the confederation were authorizing much power to the State government as compared to the central government. This was becoming a vital reason behind the encounter amid the States. If a law was implemented in the nation then, in this case, each state were having different views regarding the implementation of the law.
So to solve this issue a meeting was held by the delegates of various states in the Pennsylvania State House of Philadelphia in 1787 to bring out modification in the constitution through Constitutional Convention.The articles written in the “Constitutional convention” of 1787 reflected the need for a strong national government. The freshly drafted Constitution gave legality to a new state by declaring them sovereign. It provided national identity to the citizens of the new American States. The government organized on the principles of the Confederation laid importance on maintaining provincial autonomy.
