The correct answer is C) They accepted that the country needed a stronger central government than the one created by the Articles of Confederation could provide.
Leaders of the United States did not opt to simply revise or improve the Articles of Confederation in 1787 because "They accepted that the country needed a stronger central government than the one created by the Articles of Confederation could provide."
The Articles of Confederated had left a weak central government that practically could not do anything important. Under the Articles, the States maintained their sovereignty and were the ones that could collect money through taxes. When the Central government, the Congress, needed money, it had to ask the States for it. That is why the US leaders met at the Constitutional Convention of 1787 in the City of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to create the new Constitution.
World War I was so deadly because all of the new weapons that were invented. New technology that was being invented such as machine guns and mustard gas made war deadlier than every war before.
