The main problem of the Articles was that they didn’t give the federal gov the power to tax. Keep in mind that the American Revolution was fought against a central authority who taxed the Americans without their consent—the Americans were loath to create the sane thing for themselves. The newly minted United States of America owed debts to merchants in Europe and its own citizens, butstates disagreed on whose responsiblitiy it was to pay these debts.
Another problem was how easy it was for a state to block legislation. One example would; be when Rhode Island, America’s smallest state, vetoed a tariff that would have helped pay the American debt. The tariff failed and the government was left searching for answers. The Articles required 9 out of 12 states to agree in order to pass legislation.
While there are other prob;es, the finel pron;les is the issue with the Western lands. The U.S gained control over land that went to the Mississippi River after the Treaty of Paros-which was in 1783. Many states claimed land that stretched all the way to this new boundary, and states had conflicting claims over this land. There needed to be a way to allocate this land fairly so that the citizens of these areas would feel as though they were an American citizen as much as someone from the original thirteen colonies.
