In comparing the Article of Confederation and the U.S. Constitution I think that there are more differences than similarities. I believe that some of the similarities to be:
The name of the United States of America which is expressly used in the Articles but only referred to in the Preamble of the Constitution.
It was agreed that our country needed a Congress but there was some changes in exactly congress would be set up. The Articles set it up as unicameral (or one group), but changed it to bicameral (two groups) in the constitution.
The number of the members of Congress which asked for somewhere between two and seven members per state, but settled on two senators per state in the Constitution. (The constitution also included the House of Representatives with was decided by the population of the state).
Voting in Congress in which the articles asked for one vote per state while the constitution decided on one vote per Representative or Senator.
Adding an Amendment was written into the Articles when it was agreed upon by all states, the constitution left it as agreed upon by the states but changed it slightly to include agreement by only three fourths of the states.
The Ratification of an Amendment had to be unanimous in the Articles, but while the constitution left the power with the states, they changed it to only nine of the states required for the consent of ratification.
Congress is allowed to build a Navy in both the Articles and the Constitution, but the constitution added that individual states may not keep ships of war.
Congress is allowed to raise an Army
The power to coin money is allowed by the government and the states in the Articles, however the constitution disallowed the states to coin money and left it just as the U.S. government.
