Answer:
C. It is a time in American history from the late 18th century until the start of the Civil War.
Explanation:
As per the American history, the Antebellum Period is commonly regarded to be the time before the Civil War and after the Constitution was adopted in 1789. It was associated with the rise of abolition and the country's gradual division between the slavery supporters and abolitionists. The conquest of new territories and western expansion intensified the slavery issue and contributed to the Civil War.
The Articles of Confederation were weak because it lacked an Executive branch of government, required all states to agree on any amendments and could not collect taxes.
Truth be told, the thirteen colonies/states didn't want a strong government, they fought against the English monarchy because of this. They wanted that power remained within the states. Of course, this changed later.
I believe it was the new deal. However, if I had to guess a runner up it would be the new frontier.
