What was a power given by the Articles of Confederation?

The Articles of Confederation gave the federal government the ability to declare war on other nations while giving the state government the right to tax.

Further Explanation:

The Articles of Confederation was America's first constitution after becoming free from British rule. This constitution gave a significant amount of power to state governments and very little power to the federal government. One of the reason behinds this uneven split in power was the Americans fear of a tyrannical and too powerful central government, like the one they experienced right before the American Revolution.

This is why the federal government was only given a limited amount of power. The federal government could declare war and make treaties with other countries. However, states had the ability to tax, decide whether or nor they would follow federal laws, and could coin their own currency. This constitution proved to be highly ineffective, ultimately resulting in delegates meeting at the Constitutional Convention in order to change this document. After realizing the Articles of Confederation could not be fixed, the delegates decided to develop a brand new constitution. This resulted in the US Constitution we have today.

8. Describe what the Berlin blockade and the Berlin airlift were.
vekshin1

Answer & Explanation:  The Berlin Blockade occurred between June 1948 to May 1949 which was characterized by the restriction of supplies to the U.S, Britain and French sectors of Berlin which coincidentally was situated within East Germany occupied by the Soviet Union. Railways, roads, canals etc. were blocked leaving millions of civilians without basic amenities.

In response to the Berlin Blockade of the period, the Western Allies arranged what was termed the Berlin Airlift which lasted nearly a year with the aim of bringing essential, vital supplies to the massive population of West Berlin, a difficult feat given the size of the city's population.

The blockage and the airlift response thus represented the very first major conflict of the Cold War era.
