The states tried to retain control for themselves by leaving the central government practically powerless, but this caused problems between states. That is why the Articles of Confederation were abandoned and the Constitutional Convention called to create a more powerful federal government that balanced the authority of the states.
The Article of confederation came AFTER the revolution and was replaced by the constitution.
The Constitution of the United States was written during the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia after the American Revolution had ended and the Articles of Confederation had proven a failure.
