Why was it difficult to make changes to the article of confederation?
AVprozaik [17]
The articles gave very little power to the central government and more to the states. Therefore, when the government leaders were trying fix the articles, they really had no power to. That is why, when the leaders had the Constitutional Convention, instead of changing the articles, they had to completely throw out the articles and start over.
