Question

What are TWO advantages of the AOC that helped America?

Answer 1

Answer:

1. They protected and strengthened the United States.

During the 1700s, the British government had imposed strict regulations on those who lived in the American colonies and had become tyrannical in its rule. This urged the early Americans to long for independence, which was one of the reasons why they came up with the Articles of Confederation. Through these, they showed Great Britain and the entire world that the young nation was quite capable of taking care of itself. It also sent a message that America was ready to form trade relations with other countries.

2. They gave freedom to U.S. citizens.

Under the British rule, Americans couldn’t easily travel or trade with each other. The Articles of Confederation changed this rule, allowing Americans to go wherever they pleased to find employment opportunities and to trade goods and services with each other.
