The Federalist Papers are a series of 85 articles, which gave assistance to the Constitution of the United States.  These 85 articles were drafted by Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, and James Madison under the pen name Publius. These articles act as the description of the newly proposed laws under the constitution to the people of U.S, in the hope of encouraging them to sanction the new constitution in the upcoming convention.
