Answer: The Zhou Dynasty

Explanation:  Zhou Dynasty overthrew the Shang Dynasty and used the Mandate of Heaven as justification.

The Zhou created the Mandate of Heaven: the idea that there could be only one legitimate ruler of China at a time, and that this ruler had the blessing of the gods. They used this Mandate to justify their defeat of the Shang, and its subsequent rule.

Some scholars think that the previous Xia Dynasty never existed - that it was invented by the Zhou to support their claim under the Mandate that there was always only one ruler of China.

What was the main concern with the first draft of the Articles of Confederation?
mixas84 [53]
The first draft of the Articles of Confederation allowed each individual states' governments to have power. The purpose was to help everyone be happy and recover from the abuse of the British government. However, because the central government was rather weak, it lacked the power to enforce laws, impose taxes, etc., creating a rather huge problem for the states.

Hope this helps a lot! :)
