William Few was very much in favor of a strong national government. The country had fought so hard for freedom and rights during the war, he felt the best way to protect the rights that so many had died for was through a strong central government. Few was a US Senator from the state of Georgia from March 4, 1789 to March 3, 1793.

What were the reasons that Georgia ratified the US Constitution?

Georgians Abraham Baldwin and William Few attended the Constitutional Convention of 1787 because Georgians supported a stronger national government than established by the Articles of Confederation. Many Georgians were concerned about war with the Native American populations and wanted a strong national government for protection. The need for protection from the Natives was one of the founding reasons that Georgians were slow to disassociate themselves from Britain during the American Revolution. Concerns regarding the national government becoming too powerful were addressed by the Bill of Rights. Georgia was the fourth state to ratify the constitution.

The actual word democracy carries the same denotation (dictionary value) in South Africa as it does around the world.
