It is the second constitution, replacing the Articles of Confederation. It began on September 17, 1787 and was eventually ratified on June 21, 1788. The Constitution operates with a bicameral legislature that is referred to as the Congress - it is divided into the House of Representatives and the Senate. The Congress allows up to two Senators per state, and Representatives depending on the population of the state they represent. The Constitution has constantly been subject to many changes and amendments. It currently presents 27 amendments and 7 articles, but is still one of the shortest constitutions in existence. |
