National leaders generally viewed the Articles of Confederation as inadequate for effectively governing the fledgling United States. They believed it created a weak central government that lacked the authority to regulate commerce, levy taxes, or maintain a standing army. This ineffectiveness led to issues such as economic instability and difficulties in foreign relations, prompting leaders like George Washington and Alexander Hamilton to advocate for a stronger federal framework, ultimately resulting in the Constitutional Convention of 1787.
