Who wanted to replace the Articles of Confederation?
The Articles of Confederation had the power to settle disputes between states, but let the states make their own constitution/laws
. The amount of Force needed to make an object change its motion depends on the Mass of the object and the Force required
The Articles' weakness was that they gave the federal government so little power that it couldn't keep the country united. The Articles were abandoned for the Constitution.The Articles of confederation did not give the federal government the power to taxThe Articles of confederation did not have an executive branch in other words no presidentThe Articles of Confederation did not have a judicial branch to resolve disputes and set policy.It was very difficult to pass laws under the Articles of Confederation 9/13 of the states had to agree and almost impossible to revise the Articles the need every state to agree in order to make a change.
well they didn't make it easy but they made it easier. the articles of comfederatiuon were made of laws that were supported by many states (remember, there were only 13 at the time). that made it easier to resolve conflict between the states. nut, in the end the articles of confederation did not really work out. there were stil many problems between the larger and smaller states.
I think the biggest problem with the Articles of Confedertion were not working. The government was weak and getting weaker. States were in charge,The Congress could not force anyone to do what anyone to do what was needed for the country.
(They wanted to prevent an abuse of national government.)
For the Articles of Confederation to be ratified, all 13 states needed to approve the document. This requirement ensured that every state had a say in the new framework of government. However, for Congress to take certain actions or make amendments, a supermajority of nine states was typically required.
The articles of confederation was the first government of the united states. There was very little national government, it was mostly the states that controlled themselves. The articles failed because they made it too weak of a government. The government had no power to tax the people or to make new laws. Also each state got one vote in congress, which was not fair to the states with larger populations. Out of the 13 states it took 9 to pass something making it virtually impossible to change anything. Also, they could not make a new government either, they could only change the articles. It was not a very good choice because the government had no money, they still owed (revolutionary) war debts. The only way they profited was selling land out west, or taking voluntary donations from citizens. The articles of confederation was made shortly after the signing of The Treaty of Paris which officially ended the revolutionary war. Later leaders from states came together once they realized the articles were not working.
I think because they could not make rules for the states
It made it a loose confederation that didn't work.
