In the list below, check all of the items that describe a problem with the Articles of Confederation.

The Articles of Confederation created a weak national government: Congress could not tax people directly or regulate trade among the states. Important measures required approval from nine of the thirteen states, and changing the Articles required unanimous approval from all thirteen. These limits made it difficult for the government to raise money, coordinate commerce, or respond to problems.
