The issue that most directly united the delegates to the Constitutional Convention was:
**Creating a government without a king.**
The delegates convened in Philadelphia in 1787 with the primary goal of addressing the weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation and establishing a more effective system of government. The idea of creating a government without a king reflected their commitment to forming a republic, with power derived from the people and distributed among different branches of government.
