a central government set up by the newly formed united states
The first three articles of the Constitution lay out how the government is to be organized. Each article deals with the setup of one of the branches of government.
First, States Rights is not a theory, it is within the Constitution. Since the Constitution primarily limited Federal Government powers, all things not specifically granted to Congress fell into the purview of the States. The South also argued that the United States had been formed as a voluntary federation, and that any state was free to leave the USA at any time. The Federal Government at the time had made several laws and tariffs that seemed to serve only to the Northern States advantage. This, with the South's feeling that the Federal Government was over-reaching its legal powers, led to the South deciding that the Government was no longer valid. They formed their own country and their own Constitution based heavily on the US Constitution, though it had more constraints on Federal law. The same concerns about Federal over-reach are in the news currently.
The first colony to adopt its own constitution was: New Hampshire.
It was a set of rules used to establish the first government for the newly formed united states.
There wasn't a national government before the war and after it had to be formed. The first government formed was under the Articles of Confederation. They didn't work so they went back and wrote the constitution. In 1789 at national government began under George Washington as the first President.
