Forms Of Government

In the beginning of our nation, our forefathers were striving for a new and different form of government from our predecessors. As different cultures, religions and social groups started to form, our official government started to be put into place. At first we had the “Articles of Confederation” in place as a general guideline for our country to follow. These articles were a sort of laid back suggestions of what our country needed to be formed like. There was different mentions of laws and regulations as maybes for our nation. However, as time went on, as a nation, we decided we were growing more than those articles could govern. We needed a true and set copy of written laws, bylaws and government bodies.

Our nation might be in sort of a rut right now, yet we are still true to our foundation. Throughout wars, trials and tribulations, we continue to rely on our definitions of government and true belief our founding fathers knew what they were talking about. That is what keeps our country running, as it has for the past 200
