The New Deal was a series of measures and projects enacted during the Great Depression (The worst economic downturn of America) that aimed to restore public confidence in the banking system, to provide relief to those most in need (like the elderly and the poor), to employ millions of Americans, to reform infrastructure, to regulate the economy and others.

The New Deal both provided direct relief and created new jobs through the establishment of government agencies, some of them were: 1) the Civilian Conservation Corps (1933) that gave millions of young men employment on environmental projects that, among others, included the plantation of trees and construction of trails and shelters for those homeless; 2) the Works Progress Administration (1935) that employed mostly unskilled men to carry out public works projects, such as the construction of public buildings and roads that benefited the whole society; 3) and the Tennessee Valley Authority (1933) that provided jobs to people and brought electricity to the rural Tennessee River Valley, operated the hydroelectric Wilson Dam, improved the navigability of the Tennessee River and developed the agriculture, commerce and industry in the region.

Under the Articles of Confederation, on whom did the Confederation Congress rely to enforce its laws?
xz_007 [3.2K]

<em>A.  Individual states.</em>

Explanation:

The Articles of Confederation was the first constitution for the United States. They were known for being very weak and giving little to no power to the government, only to the states. Under the Articles, the government could not tax the states, regulate trade, create and enforce laws properly, draft soldiers, and other important aspects of what a government needs to do.

Since most of the power went to the states, it was very hard to do anything. The Confederation Congress relied on the states in order to enforce any laws and 9 out of 13 of the states had to agree with it.

Eventually, people started to realize how the Articles of Confederation was doing more harm than good and was potentially harming the country. The people who believed in this and wanted to amend the Articles were called Federalists. On the other hand, people who were in support of the Articles and wanted the power to be in the hands of the states were called Anti-Federalists.

When the<em> Constitutional Convention of 1787</em> was called, the original goal was to amend the Articles of Confederation. This did not happen though. The Articles actually ended up getting scrapped altogether and the United States Constitution was created instead.
