Five key factors that eventually led to the convening of the constitutional convention

Articles of Confederation served as the first constitution of America when it was still a colonial state. After a Revolutionary war and the independence of United States from the Britain, Articles of confederation was altered and declared as constitutional convention which was adopted on May 1787 in order to alleviate many problems that for experienced after the war of independence because of the poorly articulated articles of confederation.

Explanation: main five factors that led to the convening of constitution were:

Inflation: After the Revolutionary war all 13 states had a hard time paying off their debts, they also started printing money which was of lesser or no value. The Articles of confederation was not giving worthy policy making guidance.

Shay's Rebellion: Because farmers were unable to pay new taxes they were forced to sell their lands in order to pay the new taxes to generate revenue for the newly emerged state. That exacerbated the problems.

James Madison was a federal list and he wanted stronger Central Government and wanted to divide government into three main branches executive, legislative and judicial branch and a system of checks and balances so that no one could abuse their powers.This was the foundation of constitutional convention.

Alexander Hamilton: He believe the Articles of Confederation separated the nation instead of unifying them, so the articles of Confederation was considered to be poorly managed and he wanted that a strong Central government is the key to reliable source of income in to develop more powerful and internationally recognized Central Government.

The new burg Conspiracy: The congress was under the debt from the war because of which they couldn't no longer pay the military and repay them for food and clothing. Officers then began to pass around a anonymous letter disapproving the congress and calling for a revolt. This made George Washington reconsider the Congress.

in 'popular history' of europe in america it's common to blame the rise of the nazis (and of coursewwii, too) mainly on the treaty of versailles. despite the harshness of the treaty and despite the inflation of 1919-23 germany did benefit from the economic buoyancy of the roaring twenties. in the general election in 1928, the nazis only managed to get 12 (out of about 584) seats in the reichstag. the nazis were widely seen as a laughing-stock led by a funny little man given to yelling and wild gesticulation. of all european countries, none was hit harder than germany by the stockmarket crash of october 1929. germany had borrowed very large sums from american banks, with much of the money repayable either on demand or at short notice. these loans were of course recalled, and bankruptcies in germany rose sharply from the start of 1930 (or earlier). unemployment rose sharply, too. the german constitution of 1919 contained much that was utopian, including the right to paid employment. the realities of the situation made a mockery of the weimar constitution. one of german's great weaknesses at the time was the lack of a broadly based, popular right-wing party comparable to, say, the republicans in the us or the conservatives in britain. the obvious candidate, the german nationalists (the dnvp), had lost its grip and was hopelessly out oftouch with many of its supporters especially in rural areas. germany became increasingly hard to govern.

from about the middle of 1930 onwards the new chancellor, br�ning, had to govern by decree. in the absence of mainstream right-wing party, the nazis - who ruthlessly exploited genuine grievances - suddenly became the largest single party in the reichstag. with the growing effects of the great depression, unemployment reached about 27% (or more) in 1932. acting on bad advice (from the dnvp) hindenburg dismissed brüning in july 1932. in the general election that followed, the nazis won 37% of the seats. the other party that did well was the communist party (kpd) with 14%. fresh elections were held in november 1932: the nazi vote fell slightly, but the communist vote rose to 17%. in the streets of berlin and other major cities violence between left and right and their paramilitary wings grew. by late 1932, the effects of the great depression in germany had passed their peak, but this wasn't obvious at the time. the steady rise in communist vote triggered panic among most of the mainstream parties. after trying various solutions to the political crisis, hindenburg again took very bad advice - again from the dnvp. on the basis of this advice, he appointed hitler reichs chancellor on 30 january 1933 who promised to form a coalition with the german nationalists (dnvp). he did so, but at the same time almost immediately unleashed the sa (stormtroopers) who started a reign of terror within two months germany became a dictatorship, complete with concentration camps. joncey

explanation:

- a government ruled by the people, or assembly. officials monarchy - a single ruler like a king. over time some city-states, like athens would change governments. what this means is that all the citizens voted on all the laws.
