Why was a convention convened at Annapolis in 1786?

The Annapolis Convention was made to remedy the failing Articles of Confederation, but only 5 of 13 states sent delegations. They agreed to re-convene a year later in Philidelphia where all 13 states sent delegations and the Constitution was formed.

The Annapolis Convention was convened in 1786 to address the weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation. However, due to low attendance, it could not achieve its goals, leading to the proposal for a larger convention in Philadelphia the following year, which resulted in the creation of the U.S. Constitution. Key figures like Alexander Hamilton advocated for this subsequent meeting to strengthen the federal government.
