Question 2 • HCVS25-26 Government and Civics

Why were the Articles of Confederation replaced with the Constitution?

Answer
A
The Articles of Confederation did not give strong power to the federal government.
B
The Articles of Confederation did not create a governmental structure for the states.
C
The Articles of Confederation did not provide powers for strong individual state governments.
D
The Articles of Confederation did not allow the federal government to deal with foreign countries.

Explanation

Under the Articles of Confederation, the national government had very limited power: for example, it could not effectively tax citizens or enforce laws. The Constitution replaced the Articles by creating a stronger federal government while still dividing power between the national government and the states. Therefore, the correct choice is “The Articles of Confederation did not give strong power to the federal government.”
