Who held the power in Articles of Confederation?
Essentially, the state governments held most of the power under the Articles of Confederation. The founding fathers wanted to keep as far away from a monarchy like Britain's, which gave nearly all power to the central government, as possible. As a result of the terms of the Articles of Confederation, though, each state functioned almost like its own individual country instead of a component of the United States, the central government couldn't do anything about it, and the entire country faced economic issues because the central government couldn't tax its people.
Why did articles of confederation have to be replaced by constitution?
Congress was the chief agency of the government because there was no executive branch. It proved difficult, and often impossible, for congress to put it's policies into effect. Nine of te 13 states had to agree on any law and all 13 had to agree to amend the articles of confederation, but at times they could not all meet.
What fears resulted in the flaws in the articles of the confederation?
Fears were: 1. The citizens would think that the federal government was too strong, therefore being too much like the Great Britain they had just escaped from. 2. If the federal government held all the power, then the states would become dictated, and the states wouldn't have enough freedom. 3. This resulted in the states having too much power and not giving enough money to the federal government when in need. Luckily, a few Founding Fathers fixed that...like George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and so on...

The original purpose of the 1787 Philadelphia Convention was to revise the Articles of Confederation, the first document outlining the operation of the United States national government. The Articles of Confederation lacked provisions for a federal court system, fair representation of the states in Congress, and a President. Many of the 55 delegates at the Convention finally concluded there was no way to patch the old system, so they secretly rewrote the plan for government in the US Constitution. The Philadelphia Convention later became known as the Constitutional Convention.
