Constitutional Convention

The Constitution was created by a convention that met in Philadelphia in May 1787 to amend the Articles of Confederation, the nation’s first constitution.

This is Video 2 of the 35-part "The Constitution EXPLAINED" series created by iCivics and the Center for Civic Education to explain the key aspects of the U.S. Constitution in everyday language to make our nation's founding document accessible to everyone. "The Constitution EXPLAINED" was made possible by the generous support of Kenneth C. Griffin.
