Answer:

Congress was dependent on the states for its money.

Explanation:

Under the first US written Consitution, the Articles of Confederation, the government, consisting of a Congress only, could not tax people. The ways in which it raised money was by borrowing from foreign governments, selling western lands or asking the states for funds. This constituted one of the major weaknesses of the Constitution because it made the government dependent on the states for its money.

Which is NOT a power of congress

bija089 [108]

Actually, there are technically six powers that Congress can not do, but only four of them are still relevant today. The four relevant prohibited powers are....

1) Habeus Corpus. This prevents Congress from passing laws that remove the protections of people who have been accused of crimes.

2) Ex Post Facto and Bill of Attainder Laws. Basically, Congress can't make something illegal after its already been done, nor can they create laws specifically aimed at certain groups of people.

3) Prohibits Congress from making laws discriminating against states or religions.

4) Congress can't create laws regarding specific states and their export taxes.

The other two clauses are...

5) Congress can not regulate slave trade. This became irrelevant after the year 1808.

6) Congress can not impose or create direct taxes on something.

wlad13 [49]

My best bet would be the very first option; Termujin or Genghis Khan (he was born Termunjin but changed it) was very charismatic and gave promises of vast expansion and invasions which was accomplished.
