The Articles of Confederation sought to create the states independence but it had many problems. One such problem was there was no court system and Congress did not have the power to tax.
States had more power. They did not want the federal government to have too much power like Britain/Parliament. What couldn't Congress do under the Articles of Confederation? Congress couldn't regulate trade or collect taxes.
Yes, So did the US Congress. Yes, So was the US Congress.
No. One of the weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation was that it made no provision for a federal court system. Article III of the US Constitution, which replaced the Articles of Confederation, required that Congress establish the Supreme Court. In other words, the Constitution said the government had to have a supreme court, but didn't directly create one. It left that task to Congress.
The Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union was drafted in 1777 and became binding in 1781. The articles put several limits on the Confederate Congress including the inability to create one currency for all the Southern states, and not giving them power to make states do anything against their will.
The Articles of Confederation did not create the executive or judicial branches.
The Articles of Confederation was much different than the US Constitution. This document did not allow congress to collect taxes. Congress could not make treaties on the states' behalf. This group could not create a national army for the protection of the people either.
