True

The Articles of Confederation were a disaster. While the framers of the Articles intended for the federal government to be weak, they made it so weak to the point that a rebellion started!

One of the biggest flaws in the Articles was that it did not require state governments to give the federal government any funding. Because of this, the states refused to give the federal government any funding whatsoever. As a result, a national army could not be created because of lack of funding.

On top of not being able to pay for a national army, the federal government could not pay for any of its debts either. Because America had just gone through a Revolutionary War, the federal government (and state governments) were swamped in debt from all the borrowing during the battles.

Because states had so much debt, they would refuse to give any money to the federal government, which in turn could not pay off their debts either. States began imposing heavy taxes on their citizens, and even began taking land from people. It became so bad that a grassroots rebellion known as Shay's Rebellion began. Luckily, it was quelled before it became too dangerous.

Shay's Rebellion helped the Framers realize that there was something seriously wrong with the Articles. They held a Constitutional convention and ratified the current Constitution that we have today. In the Constitution, the federal government is significantly stronger than that of the federal government in the articles. While some people still argued for a weak federal government (Antifederalists), the people who supported a strong federal government (Federalists) won.

Now that you have learned about life in pastoral societies, you will be writing a short narrative imagining yourself as a member
Y_Kistochka [10]
Hello! I decided to write this for you ^^ I hope this helps

I woke up feeling extremely lethargic. The sheep and cows were already making a racket. <em>What is going on?</em>, I wondered as I jumped to my feet and ran outside of my tent. And sure enough, there was a rabid, angry fox chasing around my animals.

This is the kind of thing us pastoral nomads hate. We would do anything to protect our animals, but we never imagined having to risk our lives for them. I mean, we're not going to eat them or anything. They make good company.

Suddenly, a loud yelp brought me to my senses as the fox lunged towards my favorite sheep. That sheep would bring all my money in, enough to get by and buy a few things at the local market many miles away. Not my prized sheep. I grabbed my staff and struck ten good blows at the fox and it collapsed to the floor. I rounded up my animals and vowed to move again to prevent such a situation again.

What do you think were the most significant legacies of this period of nomadic empires? How did these people change history?
Leona [35]
Nomadic Empires contributed well in information dissemination and cultural assimilation in different parts of the world. They were able to change history because of the different stories they share and the culture that they relate to people. Aside from these, the trade of produce and services were brought to different parts of the world with ease and with the added effect of cultures and traditions.
