Why did the Articles of Confederation fail to create an effective, long-term government?

History
1 answer:
irina1246 [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Because of several reasons explained below.

Explanation:

The Articles of Confederation unified the 13 Colonies that fought the American Revolution War. John Dickinson wrote the draft used as the basis of these Articles. The 13 states ratified them and they went into effect in March, 1781.

Among the main weaknesses, we can list some:

Congress did not have the power to tax, so the incomes were little to none.

Court system did not exist.

To approve a law, a majority of 9 out of 13 people was required, making it more difficult.

An unanimous vote was required for Amendments.

Even though every state had its own army, it was difficult for the nation to put together a national army.

Due to this reasons, the Articles failed to create a long-term government.

What did the Supreme Court say in its Plessy v. Ferguson decision?
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

The answer is B.

This court case is famous for beginning the "separate but equal" thinking that allowed segregation to continue until the 60's. Also, the states certainly used the case to ensure that they didn't have to integrate services and places.
