When they met to rewrite the articles of confederation they had tried giving the states power and it didn’t work. To have a country you need to have a strong central government that will see to the common good of the people and for protection. States can’t provide this.
In U.S. history, there are two Articles of Confederation. The first was formed after the American colonists declared their independence from Britain and created their own government; the second when the southern states seceded from the North. In the second Articles, there was no event that proved they weren't working. They ceased to exist when the South lost the Civil War. The first failed mainly because there wasn't written into it a system of taxation that was equitable for the country to maintain a government, a military, and a presence on the world stage. After the War of Independence, the founders of the country decided that rather than revise the Articles of Confederation, they would rewrite a new Constitution, taking into account what they had learned after many years of war and independent governance.
Well... The thing was, scrapping the Articles of Confederation wasn't planned, from what I understand. When what later would be called the Constitutional Convention was called up in Philidelphia (Our capitol, before D.C had been planned and built) the original delegates simply planned to rewrite the Articles, as I understand. However, upon careful investigation, they reached a consensus that the Articles were simply too flawed to be simply rewritten, so they decided to scrap the Articles, and began the drafting of what is now the United States Constitution. Short answer, the Constitution.
