History of Virginia on stamps
The Revolutionary War in Virginia was commemorated by a pair of 18-cent stamps on October 16, 1981 at Yorktown Virginia. The designer was Cal Sacks of Westport, Connecticut. The first written U.S. constitution was the Articles of Confederation. Under the Articles, Virginia ceded its claim to territory north of the Ohio River to the United States Government to form the Northwest Territory. There was no independent executive branch or judicial branch, only Congress. The Constitution of the United States was written in an effort to form a more effective national government, with George Washington elected unanimously to be the president of the Constitutional Convention, and James Madison known as the "Father of the Constitution".
