There were disagreements on almost everything. It was all settled by compromise and a last minute rush to get a document together. The delegates argued over slavery, number of representatives each state would have, the powers of the President, a Bill of Rights, power of the states. There was little agreement on anything except that the articles of confederation were inadequate.

Under the Articles of Confederation the United States government had very severe difficulties raising money for defense and essential programs. The national government had fews way to take in money except to ask each state for a portion of their tax revenue. States did not always cooperate with federal demands for money.
Under the Articles of Confederation, Congress was a unicameral body in which each state held one vote. After eight years of a more limited federal government under the Articles, numerous political leaders, such as James Madison and Alexander Hamilton, initiated the Constitutional Convention in 1787, which received the Confederation Congress's permission to "amend the Articles of Confederation". All states except Rhode Island agreed to send delegates.
A nation with a confederate government has a political system in which states or regional governments have the ultimate authority except for those powers that are expressly given to a central government. The US was a confederation from 1776 to 1787 under the Articles of Confederation.
The government was very weak under the Articles of Confederation. It had no jurisdiction over the states. It could not levy taxes. It couldn't enforce any laws. Congress lacked effect leadership. There was no national military or court system. Every state had its own money. States could place tariffs on trade with each other.

The Articles of Confederation, our system of government prior to the adoption of the U.S. Constitution, created a confederation of states. A confederation is a political system with a loose association of states in which the regional governmnents (the states) retain the ultimate power except for the powers that the states give to the national government. The United States operated as a confederation from 1776 to 1787. The Articles also created a uni-cameral legislature with no executive branch and no national judicial system of courts. MrV

slavery was no constituted be either one. In articles of confederation, the confederation was a league between states or corporations, they did not recognize the character in the state governments except what the corporate charters or state constitutions authorized. none of the state constitutions of that day recognized slavery, but the confederation of the state governments could not of course recognize it. The original constitution mentions nothing upon slavery, until the 13th amendment was passed in senate April 8, 1864 and house on January 31,1865. constitution created September 17,1787 and ratified on June 21, 1788
States are denied certain powers under the Articles of Confederation. States may not send ambassadors to foreign countries, receive foreign ambassadors, or make any kind of arrangement, meeting or treaty with any king, prince or state. No person or state may accept any gift, including titles of nobility, from a foreign state. Neither Congress nor any state can give people noble titles.
The US did not have an actual national government under the Articles, which retained the sovereignty of the states and required them to cooperate in practically every aspect. This was always difficult and sometimes impossible. There was no executive except the President of Congress, no standing military, and no unified system of courts. The framers decided that the nation needed a stronger unifying force, and the weaknesses of the Articles had already vexed them for more than 7 years.
