The Articles of Association were petitions of grievances against Great Britain by the Thirteen Colonies and a compact among them to collectively impose economic sanctions to pressure a resolution. The Articles were drafted by the First Continental Congress in 1774 and were an important formative document in the history of the United States that perhaps hastened the American Revolution, though they were intended instead to alter Britain's policies towards the colonies without severing allegiance.

The Articles of Association of a company, often simply referred to as the Articles, are the regulations governing the relationships between the shareholders and directors of the company and between the shareholders, and are a requirement for the establishment of a company under the law of the United Kingdom and many other countries.
