In Federalist Paper No. 1, Alexander Hamilton introduces the series of essays advocating for the ratification of the U.S. Constitution. He emphasizes the significance of a strong, unified federal government for national stability and prosperity. Hamilton outlines the inadequacies of the Articles of Confederation and addresses the critical decision facing Americans: to accept the new Constitution or continue with a weaker government. He warns against the dangers of disunity and factionalism, urging readers to consider the benefits of a consolidated union that can effectively govern and protect the nation. This paper sets the stage for the arguments to follow.
