Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Constitution was influenced by both the political philosophy of the time, which emphasized the need for limited government and individual rights, and the historical experiences gained through trial of several forms of government during New World settlement. The Constitution was not influenced by the historical and political context of the Civil War, as it was written before the Civil War occurred. The Constitution was also not influenced by the trial of several forms of government during Old World settlement, as the American colonies were not established until after the Old World had tried various forms of government.
