Structuring the New Government
Structuring the New Government is a skill on Pengi from Lesson 3: Statehood and the First Constitution in Pengi Social Studies (Grade 4).
Key Concepts
The new Constitution of 1849 set up a government similar to the U.S. federal system. It created three branches to share power: a Governor to enforce laws, a Legislature to make laws, and a Supreme Court to interpret them.
The goal was to bring order to the lawless Gold Rush society. It also established the state's boundaries (separating California from what is now Nevada) and set up a system for public schools, laying the foundation for the modern state.
