Answer:

The states

Explanation:

Under the articles, the states were given more power instead of the central government, because Americans feared that a strong central government would be corrupt.

Their experience with the corrupt British government in the colonial era influenced them to give more powers to the states.

The states had lots of control over trade, policies, and taxes.

The federal government could only declare war, coin money, and handle foreign/native American relations
