It is also the document that contains the nation's guiding rules and principles, the descriptions of the power of the federal government, and the essential rights of the people. It was adopted on September 17, 1787, by the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and later ratified by conventions in each state in the name of "the People"; it has since been amended twenty-seven times. The U.S. Constitution is argued by many to be the oldest written national constitution.
