The Articles of Confederation was the first plan of government for the young United States. There were many flaws with this plan.
1. The Articles gave too much power to the states, and too little power to the national government. Because of this, many conflicts, such as the Shay's Rebellion arose. The national government did not have much power to prevent conflict between the states, and this basically caused chaos.
2. To make a change in the nation, all thirteen states had to agree. This, in itself, was extremely hard to do. Even today, only 2/3rd of Congress has to agree to ratify a bill. However, the Articles of Confederation did not give the central government enough power to levy taxes, or command a military.
Overall, the Articles of Confederation were weak. This eventually led to a Constitutional Convention, and the ratification of our US Constitution.
