Answer: it was in response to U.S oil embargo
Answer:
The AOC (Articles of Confederation) gave the state government more power then the national government because the founding fathers were afriad that the federal goverment would become a tyranny, like Great Britian. The federal goverment didn't have the power to request troops from the states so the US military relied on volunteers, which there were few of. The state militaries didn't send any troops so the US was unable to repond. The AOC existed for the first 5 years but then they had another constituional convention in which they overturned the AOC and drafted the constituion we have today.
Currently, I am staying at my home in St. Petersburg where I am visiting with friends over the summer. The weather has been warm, but with long day cruises on the Baltic Sea, I could not be happier with my current residence. The food has been luxurious, too much caviar and champagne have been consumed for one's own good but a life of excess and leisure is expected of someone in my station. I hope to arrange a visit with new friends this next week, they have promised to bring a famous man, Rasputin he is rumored to be the best holy man in the entire city and have the favor of the Czarina herself.
