The government under the Articles of Confederation gave the states much power, resulting in a weak central government that lacked adequate executive and judicial powers. After the American Revolution, the American delegates would meet again with the fate of the new nation in the balance. The weak government created under the Articles of Confederation had left these new states in a disjointed and very vulnerable position. Delegates had to act quickly to create a new government that would ensure freedom but also be strong enough to function effectively.
