Answer 1

In order to gain support for ratification of the United States Constitution, Federalists agreed to add a bill of rights to the proposed document. This compromise was important in addressing the concerns of Anti-Federalists, who were worried about the potential for government overreach and the lack of specific protections for individual liberties. The Bill of Rights was subsequently ratified in 1791, ensuring protections for various individual freedoms.
