The Constitution of the United States of America

The Constitution of the United States, established in 1789, serves as the supreme law of the nation, replacing the Articles of Confederation. Comprising seven articles, it outlines the structure and powers of government, emphasizing the separation of powers among the legislative, executive, and judicial branches. Additionally, it addresses the roles of state governments and the federal government, along with the process for constitutional amendments. As the oldest and longest-standing written constitution in the world, it remains a foundational document in American governance.
