Answer:
B. Inability to tax citizens
Explanation:
Immediately after the American Revolution, the Articles of the Confederation <u>gave little power to the federal government, for fear of a tyrannical government, such as that of the British Empire </u>that the American state had just evaded through the Revolution.
In consequence, because of lack of power over the states,<u> the federal government could hardly collect taxes and this created huge economical issues at a central level.</u>
The other answers are not correct, because <u>the Articles of the Confederation gave the federal government power to make foreign policy, establish land ordinances and negotiate treaties with Native Americans. </u>
