America didn't begin with the signing of the Constitution.
It absolutely did. Those states still operated as independent entities. They were united on the issue of declaring independence. Until the Constitution was signed, the states were not united as a nation.
Do you think Rome didn't exist before Caesar Augustus took power?
Did England spring from William of Normandy's forehead fully formed, clad in a wool coat and singing Rule Brittania?
Neither of those were multiple independent nations.
Neither were the 13 colonies
What's your point? It wasn't one country yet either. I mean that seems to support what I was saying...
