Declaration of Independence, Articles of Confederation, Constitution, Bill of Rights.

The Americans first declared independence. Then they set up their first attempt at government with the Articles. They wanted a better government with more federal power so they made the Constitution. Lastly they made approved the Bill of Rights to go along with the Constitution.
