Our
first
government
failed
.
It
was
called
the
Articles
of
____________________
.
Basically
,
it
was
designed
to
be
____________________
because
the
new
USA
did
not
trust
a
strong
central
government
.
As
a
result
-
the
AOC
depended
too
much
on
the
____________________
who
did
not
trust
each
other
.
The
Articles
could
do
a
number
of
things
but
did
not
have
the
authority
to
____________________
so
it
could
not
fund
an
____________________
or
navy
.
The
Articles
failed
and
was
replaced
by
a
document
and
government
known
as
the
____________________
.
Several
compromises
were
needed
to
pass
the
constitution
.
A
____________________
house
legislature
was
created
to
satisfy
both
large
and
____________________
states
.
Because
the
House
of
____________________
was
based
on
____________________
,
it
was
determined
that
slaves
would
be
counted
3
/
5
in
a
compromise
between
southern
and
____________________
states
.
To
pass
the
constitution
,
____________________
and
Anti
-
Federalists
argued
over
adding
a
____________________
of
____________________
to
the
document
.
A
Bill
of
rights
-
protecting
civil
liberties
-
was
added
later
to
the
Constitution
as
its
first
10
____________________
.
According
to
the
authors
of
our
founding
documents
-
our
rights
are
provided
to
us
by
____________________
.
It
is
the
role
of
____________________
to
secure
or
protect
those
rights
.
In
fact
,
the
government
gets
its
power
from
the
consent
of
the
____________________
it
is
supposed
to
protect
and
if
it
fails
to
protect
-
or
becomes
____________________
-
it
is
the
right
of
the
____________________
to
change
or
abolish
it
.
