what is an example of the articles of confederation?
Most often appearing in political and historical contexts, the term "Articles of Confederation" may be used diversely in contemporary English. One example-sentence would be as follows: "The delegates agreed as one that the recently written Articles of Confederation were theoretically sound; however, no such unanimity was achieved as to how practically effective they would be."
No they are not the same. The Articles of Confederation didn't provide the power for the government to collect taxes, for example. No, they "were" not the same* *Different author from the first paragraph.
The Articles of Confederation did NOT provide the United States with an effective government. It lacked many powers that we now have. For example the government in the 1780's couldn't impose taxes, it was unicameral, and it could not declare war. If it would have been effective we would still be under the power of the articles instead of the constitution.
No, it was the pre-constitution document for the first U.S. government.

Flaws of the Articles of Confederation: Denied a centralized national government; it denied it the power to tax or to regulate trade, not only between the United States and other nations, but also between the states. The Articles of Confederation were meant to put States' Rights over the rights of the National GovernmentThe greatest flaw of the Articles of Confederation was that all the power belonged to the states. For example: the U.S. federal government had debts to repay but had no means of enforcing or raising taxes in the states. Furthermore the articles made it nearly impossible to amend the Articles themselves so no problems no matter how glaring could be fixed.

During America's Founding Period, the Articles of Confederation of 1781 served as one of the primary bases for the writing and ratification of the Constitution from 1787 to 1789. In numerous particular ways (for example, the membership and powers of Congress), the Articles provided key touch-points by which the Constitution would be drafted.
