Why was it difficult for Congress to fulfill its duties under the Articles of Confederation? Group of answer choices

History
1 answer:
nlexa [21]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

It was difficult for Congress to fulfill its duties under the Articles of Confederation because Congress lacked the power to regulate foreign trade, and most congressional decisions required the approval of at least nine states.

Explanation:

According to the Articles of Confederation, the member states had their own foreign policy and armed forces. Member states also had the right to resign from the Confederacy. Each member state had one vote in the Unicameral Congress. The Congress elected a committee consisting of one representative from each member state to conduct the foreign and security policy. It elected a president from among its members for a year at a time. Congress had little power because it had no taxing power and could not make decisions binding on member states. In nominal terms, Congress had the power to conduct foreign, military and monetary policy, but it could not compel a member state to allocate funds. With the exception of foreign policy, the decisions of the central government were only recommendations which were not binding on the states and for which the central government had no powers, prerogatives or military powers. All major decisions also required the unanimity of the states.

It would have to be the lives lost, and the many other lives shattered by amputations and lost minds. Casualty figures have been revised upward. The overall population was about 31,000,000, not including about 4 million slaves. Of that total, half were women, which leaves some 15,000,000 men. There couldn't have been more than 5 million adult males. Out of those, some 750,000 died from wounds or disease, with over 1,000,000 afflicted (amputations, etc.) This represented almost 20% of the adult male population, and it was worse for the South (in proportion). 
<span>The Battle of Gettysburg killed over 50,000 men in three days. Three years of the Korean war resulted in about 53,000 American dead. Ten years of the Vietnam War also resulted in about 53,000 dead. The Civil War was a holocaust.</span>

Why might it have been politically helpful for Clovis to convert,as he was expanding
ryzh [129]

Clovis was a pagan, Frankish King of the early Middle Ages that ruled a small remnant state of what had been the Province of Gaul under the Roman Empire. The Franks were all divided into very small kingdoms that often waged war between themselves. After the Fall of the Roman Empire, the only purely "Roman" authority that remained was the Roman Catholic Church and the Kingdom of Soissons, the last Gallo-Roman state. Clovis conquered this state in the Battle of Soissons (486). In Clovis' time, Gaul was also heavily populated by Goths, who were believers of a form of Christianity that had been declared as heretic by the official Catholic Church. Now, Clovis's Burgundian wife, Clotilde was a Catholic Christian and she spent years trying to convince him to convert to Catholicism. He refused until one day he was in the Battle of Tolbiac (496) and according to the account of the battle by the Gallo-Roman historian Gregory of Tours, Clovis asked God for help in the battle and promised to convert to Catholicism if he won. After his victory he was indeed baptized and was able to conquer most of ancient Gaul which would eventually become <em>Frankia</em> or the Kingdom of Franks. Considering that Clovis had conquered the last Roman rump state, that most of his conquered subjects were Catholics, that the last Roman authority was the Catholic church, it is not difficult to see how converting to Catholicism would not only endear him to his new subjects but would also legitimize his conquests and make an ally out of the Roman Catholic Church that held a great matter of sway and temporal power over medieval Europe. Furthermore, the history of Clovis's prayer at the Battle of Tolbiac is probably apocryphal but it very cleverly drew a parallel between Clovis's conversion and the Conversion of the first Christian Roman Emperor Constantin I the Great who also converted after asking the Christian God for help during a battle.
