    In this video, Heimler walks you through what you need to know about the Articles of Confederation, which is a required foundational document for AP Government.
    Basically, the Articles of Confederation was the first Constitution of the United States. Since it was established right on the heels of American independence, the Articles provided for a government that was as far from centralized tyranny as they could manage. Therefore, the Articles of Confederation reserved most governing power for the states.
    The federal government had very little power and only had one branch: the legislative (or Congress). Ultimately, many problems would confront this document and provide the occasion for a new Constitution in 1787.

    Dear Mr. Heimler,
    I have watched your videos for almost three years, waiting for each upload of AP World content as a sophomore taking her first ever advanced placement course. I have gotten a 5 in AP World and a 4 in APUSH because of you. I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart because although the chances of you reading this is slim to none, you’re the reason why I believed that I could do better than the 1 I had expected of myself. Not just for the exams but for life. You taught me that I have the potential to do anything I set my mind to and that I need to have more confidence in my abilities to achieve my goals. This is my last year of AP Exams and I cannot wait to go through this journey with you one more time. Go Class of 2022!

    Tysm Mr. Heimler! We all love you and your work is very appreciated whether you’re studying a month before your test or 3 hours before it (me), you make the material easy to understand and engaging enough to where I don’t feel like going to sleep and accepting a one. Even though I procrastinated on studying for this exam, I still believe that I will do pretty well, all thanks to you. You are so good at this that I actually want to research and watch your videos on the other AP classes that I’m not required to take because it’s so interesting the way you put it! Thank you!!! And I’ll update with my score on an edit so those of you who are last-minute studying and just started studying the day before like I did can have hope.

    Interestingly, the problem with the Confederation, was that it wasn't working out.
    So, they agreed to a Constitutional convention.
    Which is one of the reasons the Constitution starts out with, "We the people, in order to form a more PERFECT UNION.."
    This was a major problem during the Civil War with the Confederate States of America (CSA).
    Not enough central power and authority.
    Remember, the south was all about "State's Rights" and this showed in the CSA government.
    In fact, if you look at the Seal of the CSA, it depicts George Washington riding on his horse.
    And it has been debated for decades if Washington was still alive at the start of the Civil War, weather he would have gone with the CSA or the US.

    This would be the Original "Constitution" or the constitution for the united states of america...additional amendments were added and the 13th altered with the Act of 1871 which imposed a 16th Amendment never fully ratified once one researches the proposals considerations and attempts to enact within all 48 states of the time and only ever actually had...I believe it was 1 state/providence/commonwealth put it into action

      @@Ccccc-bt5wi not a huge fan of article 3 which blindly obliges every state to come to the defence of the other. Similar principle with our current entanglements on other continents. We should never just say we've got your back no matter what. Like what if they instigate something completely unnecessary. Isreal for example would behave drastically differently if they didn't have the US backing them no matter what.
      Also article 4 extradition between states. Sounds just off the bat to send someone back if they broke the law in state and fled to another. But you know... Run away slaves.
