Answer:

1. Economic problems under the Articles ,One of the biggest problems was that the national government had no power to impose taxes. To avoid any perception of “taxation without representation,” the Articles of Confederation allowed only state governments to levy taxes.

2.Government successfully waged a war for independence against the British. Government granted the free inhabitants of each state “all the privileges and immunities of free citizens in the several states.” Government provided for the eventual admission of Canada into the Confederation.

3.The Northwest Ordinance, adopted July 13, 1787, by the Confederation Congress, chartered a government for the Northwest Territory, provided a method for admitting new states to the Union from the territory, and listed a bill of rights guaranteed in the territory.

4. During the American Revolution, a cash-strapped Continental Congress accepted loans from France. In order to pay for its significant expenditures during the Revolution, Congress had two options: print more money or obtain loans to meet the budget deficit.

5. Shays' Rebellion was an armed uprising in Western Massachusetts in opposition to a debt crisis among the citizenry and the state government's increased efforts to collect taxes both on individuals and their trades; the fight took place mostly in and around Springfield during 1786 and 1787.

6. According to the Virginia Plan, states with a large population would have more representatives than smaller states. Large states supported this plan, while smaller states generally opposed it. Under the New Jersey Plan, the unicameral legislature with one vote per state was inherited from the Articles of Confederation.

7. The Great Compromise created two legislative bodies in Congress. ... According to the Great Compromise, there would be two national legislatures in a bicameral Congress. Members of the House of Representatives would be allocated according to each state's population and elected by the people.

8. Three-fifths compromise, compromise agreement between delegates from the Northern and the Southern states at the United States Constitutional Convention (1787) that three-fifths of the slave population would be counted for determining direct taxation and representation in the House of Representatives.

9. The principle of checks and balances is that each branch has power to limit or check the other two, which creates a balance between the three separate branches of the state. This principle induces one branch to prevent either of the other branches from becoming supreme, thereby securing political liberty.

10. Hamilton explained that the election was to take place among all the states, so no corruption in any state could taint "the great body of the people" in their selection. The choice was to be made by a majority of the Electoral College, as majority rule is critical to the principles of republican government.

11. The Federalist, commonly referred to as the Federalist Papers, is a series of 85 essays written by Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, and James Madison between October 1787 and May 1788. The essays were published anonymously, under the pen name "Publius," in various New York state newspapers of the time.

12. Many Anti-Federalists preferred a weak central government because they equated a strong government with British tyranny. Others wanted to encourage democracy and feared a strong government that would be dominated by the wealthy. They felt that the states were giving up too much power to the new federal government.

Why did foreign powers treat U.S. government under the Articles of Confederation with scorn
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer and Explanation: Articles of Confederation was the very first written constitution of USA. This constitution was not seen with much validity on international stage. This constitution was fundamentally weak and no foreign power would take United States seriously. There were two reasons for this, primary reason was that during Revolutionary war United States borrowed a lot of money and was under enormous debts and was unable to pay that because no money was being generated. Other countries were unwilling to trade with USA because of the fear of losing their money and thus, USA could not generate enough money to pay debts and to regulate state affairs. Secondary reason was that USA's foreign policy was very fragile at that time, USA, a newly developed state, was not trusted by other states and no friendly ties were initiated by others instead USA was under threat of Britain's aggression. These were some of the reasons of why the foreign powers treated Articles of confederation with scorn.

In ancient India who were responsible for exporting goods to other countries
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

In ancient India, the Vaishyas were responsible for exporting goods to other countries.

The Vaishyas were people belonging to the lower caste.

They were treated badly and were considered as untouchables in the Hindu society.

These Vaishyas did all the odd jobs and were not allowed to enter religious places such as temples. Or to attend gatherings or sit with higher caste people.
