Should have been more precise. I was talking about the roughly 10-year period between independence and the acceptance of the US Constitution. The 1790s are early in the nation’s history, all right, but that was a period of very rapid evolution in US politics.
I thought that didn’t happen until a decade or so later?
That doesn’t qualify as “early”?
