citizens of their state, not of the USA
![Page 4: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
So, the US won…now what?
• Easy to find common ground if there’s a common enemy
• States didn’t want to unite as one big national government
• Wanted to keep all the power local
![Page 5: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
So, the US won…now what?
• Democracy– Government run by public directly– Absolutely not – general public
uneducated and dirty• Republic
– Government run by elected reps– More like it – limits input by public
![Page 6: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Views on Republicanism
• Govts rule by consent of people• How can government succeed?
– Some argued only way is selflessness– Others argued people should pursue
their own interests – total freedom
![Page 7: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
States write constitutions
• New states wrote own constitutions• All of them:
– Limited powers of state leaders– Gave people rights (speech, press, etc.)
• How they were different:– Different rules for voting– NJ even allowed women to vote
![Page 8: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
US was very different
• Most countries in late 19th Century still ruled by kings
• There was nowhere USA could look to for ideas on how to run new country– There were countries that had elected
leaders but they didn’t have 2 layers of government
![Page 9: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Debates of Continental Congress
• Congress argued about several things:• Representation by state or by person?
– If states have equal vote – citizens within small states get more influence
– If by population – big states stronger, small states maybe taken advantage of
• Decided each state got 1 vote
![Page 10: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Articles of Confederation
• New form of gov – confederation– Alliance of self-ruling states
• AoC was alliance between states– Also alliance bet. all states & Congress
![Page 11: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
What Congress controlled

![Page 12: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
What states controlled
• Everything else–(almost everything)
• Congress had no way to force states to follow its rulings– No national courts– No executive (president)
![Page 13: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Lands west of Appalachians
• States argued with each other over who had rights to lands to the west
• Lots of overlap
![Page 14: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Lands west of Appalachians
• Land claims = big money and power• States w/o western claims were
scared big states would take advantage of them
• States agreed to give western lands to Congress– For fairness– So all states would agree to join the
confederation
![Page 15: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Land Ordinance of 1785
• Plan to survey land• Congress owed money to soldiers (in
bonds)– Could raise money by selling land– Sell parcels of land – allowed for
working men to build new life– New cities – protection from natives
![Page 16: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Northwest Ordinance of 1787
• Set up how new states could form– Congress set up territory, name
governor– When have 5000 voters – can write
territory constitution– When have 60,000 voters –can apply for
statehood from Congress
– No thought about land claims of natives
![Page 17: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Trouble in paradise• Economic problems
– HUGE DEBT– Wars are expensive– Wars cost a lot of money– Wars leave countries in debt– Also, wars are expensive
![Page 18: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Trouble in paradise• Economic problems
– Owed large sums to foreign countries– France, Spain, and Netherlands helped
finance war with loans – need to pay debt
–If you don’t pay your debt, no one will ever lend you money again
![Page 19: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
So why not just pay the debt?
• Paper money was worthless– Until they had gold to back it up
• Congress couldn’t tax– Approval of all states needed to set up a
tax – couldn’t get approval– Then, tried to set up a tariff – needed all
13 states – Rhode Island refused
![Page 20: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Creditors vs. debtors
• Creditors who had lent $ to states wanted states to have high taxes – States would then have $ to repay them
• High taxes bad for regular people– If they could pay, gov makes $– If they couldn’t, they’d go bankrupt /
gov would take property & auction it
![Page 21: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Creditors vs. debtors
• Debtors wanted national government to print more paper money– More printed $ makes value drop– Easier to come by, easier to pay debts– Creditors get $ they’re owed, but not
worth the same as when they lent it
![Page 22: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Political problems• No national unity
– States function independently – didn’t care what’s best for US as a whole
• States were equal in power– But MA was more than 10x as big as GA
![Page 23: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Political problems• Changes to Articles of Confederation
had to be unanimous– Nearly impossible for all 13 to agree– One state could be obnoxious
![Page 24: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Foreign relations problems
• British soldiers were still in US– Demanded US repaid debts – Demanded US to repay loyalists who
lost property during the war
• Spain controlled New Orleans– Refused to let US ships travel from
Mississippi River to the sea
![Page 25: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Foreign relations problems
• Congress wasn’t really given right to handle foreign policy problems– Everything they needed to do required
all 13 states to agree
• Made US weak – need stronger government to fix big problems
![Page 26: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

Separation of Powers
• Original idea of Montesquieu• Split gov power into 3 branches
in Constitution:–Legislative power Congress–Executive power President–Judicial power Courts
![Page 46: After the War. What you need to know Difference between democracy & republic Structure of government under Articles of Confederation Powers Congress had](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e455503460f94b39fb2/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Checks & balances

can veto them–President can appoint people to
positions, but Senate must approve–Congress can pass laws, but courts
can rule them unconstitutional
