While the constitution was signed in September, it did not fully replace the articles until June 21, 1788 when New Hampshire approved of the ratification. Many people were scared that the new written document would limit the people more, but the government found a way to limit themselves and the people without giving one too much power. How were these two articles so different, though? Well, for starters, the legislature was originally one committee which was just called congress. In the Constitution, they created two committees called the House of Representatives and the Senate. Two people were chosen for the Senate while the Representatives was decided by the population and were voted in by the people while in the Constitution it was simply two to seven volunteers from each state. Some things remained the same, such as the name of the country, and the number of votes allowed each
