What do the Federalist Papers defend?

  1. The Declaration of Independence

  2. The Articles of Confederation

  3. The U.S. Constitution

  4. The Emancipation Proclamation

The correct answer is: The U.S. Constitution

The Federalist Papers were a series of 85 essays written by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay in support of ratifying the U.S. Constitution. They were published between 1787 and 1788 in various newspapers and were influential in convincing the American people to support the new constitution. This is why option C, the U.S. Constitution, is the correct answer. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because the Declaration of Independence and the Emancipation Proclamation were written and established after the Federalist Papers were published. Additionally, the Federalist Papers were defending the new U.S. Constitution, not the previous Articles of Confederation.
