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.

No we don't, because there will be other ways for the future generations to see what we did, like journals, and movies. Also our records will always be saved online as long as Google keeps all the information.

10. Members of the “whiskey rebellion” sympathized with what early American political party? (1 point) the Federalists the Democ
Fittoniya [83]

the Democratic Republicans

Democratic Republicans believed in state power over the federal government and the ability of states to ignore unjust laws. In the case of the Whiskey Rebellion, farmers rebelled against a tax on whiskey. They believed it was the right as citizens to refuse to pay a federal tax because they didn't believe in the tax and weren't fairly represented. The rebellion was met by federal troops and a statement of federal supremacy.

Democratic-Republicans formed under the leadership of Thomas Jefferson. The party had roots in the ideas of Anti-Federalists during the Constitutional Convention. The Democratic-Republicans believed the Constitution should be followed strictly and as stated. They also supported states rights over the federal government. In addition they opposed the National Bank and any institutions that gave the federal government power.
