Answer:

Option A, agreement on the inclusion of a Bill of Rights , is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The newly freed U.S. States established a document under which very limited powers were given to the national government and much of the powers were given to the sovereign states. This very document which also served as the primary constitution of the United States came to be known as the Articles of Confederation. Since the national government did not have some significant powers some of the Americans demanded ratification to the constitution. After a long period of debate over the issue of ratification of the constitution, the majority of the leaders agreed on the inclusion of a U.S. Bill of Rights was introduced in the United States. This inclusion made the ratification to the U.S. Constitution possible.
