An important accomplishment of the Articles of Confederation was that it created fair policies for settling lands west of the Appalachian Mountains.
A confederation (also known as a confederation or league) is an association of sovereign groups or states united for joint action.[1] Confederations of states, usually created by treaty, tend to be formed to deal with critical issues such as defense, foreign relations, internal trade, or currency, with the central government required to provide support to all its members. Confederalism represents the main form of intergovernmental, which is defined as any form of interaction around states that takes place on the basis of sovereign independence or government.
The European Alliance and the United Nations ("UN") are examples of a confederation, while the United States is a federation. Although the US as a whole may participate in confederations such as the United Nations, it maintains a central government with some authority over the various states.
The Articles of Confederation were adopted by the Continental Congress on November 15, 1777. This document served as the first United States Constitution. It was in effect from March 1, 1781, until 1789, when the current constitution came into force.
