The AOC (Articles of Confederation) really limited the power of Congress. They could not...

• Collect Taxes
• Conduct foreign policy
• Could not enforce laws

There were many other problems with the AOC as well. A huge one was that it was practically impossible to amend; all 13 states needed to unanimously agree on a change. Given the rivalry between the States, and the fact that Rhode Island hardly showed up for anything, it would be impossible to fix the AOC.

Congress also could not pay off the national debt. The US owed a whole lot of money after fighting the war. However, due to the fact that Congress couldn’t collect taxes, the government had to print more money which caused massive problems with the economy.

I hope you found this interesting! Good luck!!

Why did the U.S. government “militarize” the South during Radical Reconstruction?
fiasKO [112]
The U.S government militarized the South because they wanted to oversee the election and registration of voters. Only after new state constitutions had been written and states had ratified the Fourteenth Amendment could these states rejoin the Union. Predictably, President Johnson vetoed the Reconstruction Acts, viewing them as both unnecessary and unconstitutional. Once again, Congress overrode Johnson’s vetoes, and by the end of 1870, all the southern states under military rule had ratified the Fourteenth Amendment and been restored to the Union.
