Alexander Hamilton was born on a Caribbean island and later came to live in the colonies. Mr. Hamilton believed that we needed a stronger central government. He said that America was "nothing but a monster with 13 heads!" Soon Americans began worrying about the weaknesses of the confederation government. Many citizens began to think that changes were needed.

Alexander Hamilton called America a 13-headed monster because of the challenges each state brought to the table. They all had different ideas of how the government should be run.
