Answer:

Anglo-Saxon.

Explanation:

Old English was the first aspect of the English language spoken in the region of England, mainly between the 5th and 10th centuries. Its origin is based on Anglo-Saxon, a language brought to the British islands by the Vikings in their invasions, of a Germanic basis and closely related to the Norse. This first aspect was spoken until the Battle of Hastings, when the Normans invaded England and began to modify the language.

<u> C.The federal government was able to collect taxes.</u>

Under the Constitution, the government consists of three branches (Legislative, Executive and Judicial), in which the Legislative has the power to lay and collect taxes. This was quite different under the Articles of Confederation, which established a weak central government that consisted only of a Congress. One of the most important powers the Congress lacked was the power to collect taxes, therefore if they needed to raise money, they could attempt to do so by asking the states for funds (which had the option to reject the request), borrowing from foreign governments, or selling western lands.
