[SIZE=11.5pt]Name: [/SIZE][SIZE=11.5pt]Articles of Confederation (and Perpetual Union between the States of New Hampshire, Massachusetts Bay, Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia)[/SIZE][SIZE=12pt][/SIZE]
[SIZE=11.5pt]Age:[/SIZE][SIZE=11.5pt] 235; ratified in March 1, 1781[/SIZE][SIZE=12pt][/SIZE]

[SIZE=11.5pt]Appearance:

[SIZE=11.5pt]When it rarely projects the effort into a physical form, the Articles is a dreary sight. [/SIZE]Featureless like all documents, it can imitate the silhouette of any of its signers. However, as it fades, its form becomes less distinct, fraying as its documents have. Otherwise, its forms are the copies of its original document.
[SIZE=11.5pt]Personality: [/SIZE][SIZE=11.5pt]Written in a time of independence and rebelliousness, the manifestation of the Articles of Confederation is prideful, likely too prideful. It is disorganized but growing most desperate as it fades. It believes that America will only prosper again if the nation returns to its format.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=11.5pt]Backstory: [/SIZE][SIZE=11.5pt]All writing creates life. A single word flares for a moment before dying on its own, but when combined with others, life grows. Most fade with use. A grocery list goes quickly, rarely lasting more than a day; those that do strain under the time. Love letters are watered with each read, each night spent beneath the pillow. Still, they do not last forever. As others come to take their place, their power fades. Lovers split, spoiling the message in the words. Even letters from those that are only separated by death cannot preserve the strength for long. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=11.5pt][/SIZE]
[SIZE=11.5pt]The works that last the longest are those that are read. Novels and other works of literature grow with every copy. When a reader connects to a character, their life is shared. [/SIZE]Being well known, even if unread does give a piece some life. It is how Moby Dick has survived. But it is with use that a written work can thrive. And it is use that the Articles of Confederation lacks. When each child is taught its brief mention keeps it from fading, but it is rarely read. It is never cited like its cousin the Constitution.
[SIZE=11.5pt][/SIZE]
[SIZE=11.5pt]It was not used long. [/SIZE]But the fervor, the belief in its new nation state was strong when it was written, and that strength has been imbued into its words. It knows that its power is fading, but it does not want to die. It has used what’s left of its strength to attempt to convince others of rebelling against the central government. The distrust it spreads seems to be strengthening the document, which is allowing it to spread the message further.
[SIZE=11.5pt]Other:[/SIZE][SIZE=11.5pt] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=11.5pt]Inspiration: [/SIZE][SIZE=11.5pt]To me, “This is Gospel” is about breaking free of the limitations, of following your convictions even if it requires rebelling. [/SIZE]This mindset is reflected in the American Revolution.
[SIZE=11.5pt]“Cake by the Ocean” is ridiculous. [/SIZE]This is as well.
[SIZE=11.5pt]The video of “Safe and Sound” is about the restoration of an old theater. [/SIZE]Its lyrics sound more desperate to convince than true. I imagined a piece of history trying to convince someone that it’s important
