The major downfall of the Articles of Confederation was simply weakness. The federal government, under the Articles, was too weak to enforce their laws and therefore had no power. The Continental Congress had borrowed money to fight the Revolutionary War and could not repay their debts.

A few weaknesses from the articles of confederation were...

  1. Congress had no power to take/collect taxes
  2. There was no branch or system to make sure laws were being carried out
  3. Lots of debts were made that couldn't be paid
  4. Too many currencies were made and not just 1 currency for the country.

I only listed a <u>few</u> there are plenty more weaknesses.

Why did Whitney consider standardized parts
Mnenie [13.5K]

During the Industrial Revolution of the 19th century, machines took over most of the manufacturing work from men, and factories replaced craftsmen’s workshops. The event that laid the groundwork for this monumental change was the introduction of interchangeable parts, or pre-manufactured parts that were for all practical purposes identical, into the firearms industry. Interchangeable parts, popularized in America when Eli Whitney used them to assemble muskets in the first years of the 19th century, allowed relatively unskilled workers to produce large numbers of weapons quickly and at lower cost, and made repair and replacement of parts infinitely easier.

At that time it was one of the most powerful cities of the Mediterranean with diverse population, thanks to the port state and the trade that took place there.
