The answer is A, too much power in the central government.
America
had just experienced the rule of a tyrannical leader. They were afraid
that if they gave the central government too much power, then they would
end up going through the same problems again. So they ended up giving
too much power to the states, and too little to the central government.
Later on they had to change the rule because nothing was working out
well. They owed other countries money and they figured that something
had to change.
<em>B. The Tenth Amendment protects the powers of states, rather than individual liberties.</em>
Explanation:
Most of the Bill of Rights goes over and protects individual liberties, like freedom of speech, the right to bear arms, protection of unreasonable searches, etc. This is where the Tenth Amendment differs.
The Tenth Amendment grants any and all of the powers that are not reserved to the national government, to the states.

The Renaissance is a period in European history, covering the span between the 14th and 17th centuries. It is an extension of the Middle Ages, and is bridged by the Age of Enlightenment to modern history. It grew in fragments, with the very first traces found seemingly in Italy, coming to cover much of Europe, for some scholars marking the beginning of the modern age.
Russia defeated Napoleon by starving and freezing his army to death. During the invasion, French troops were forced to march through miles of snow in extremely cold weather, without the proper clothing and supplies to survive it. The Russians purposefully burned down their own villages so that the French could not raid them for supplies. By the time Napoleon reached Moscow, his army's morale was extremely low and he had sustained heavy losses, and he was forced to retreat soon afterward. Russia's cold weather that makes it almost impossible to invade is often called 'Russian Winter' or 'General Winter'.
Hope this helps!
