An original copy of the Founding document of America, the Constitution, Article I.

The Constitution of the United States is the supreme law of the United States of America. This founding document, originally comprising seven articles, delineates the national frame of government.

Its first three articles embody the doctrine of the separation of powers, where the federal government is divided into three branches: the legislative, consisting of Congress (Article I); the executive, consisting of the president and subordinate officers (Article II); and the judicial consisting of the Supreme Court and other federal courts (Article III).
