Question

Read each question carefully. Determine the best answer to the question from the four answer choices provided. No national currency No national authority to tax Fear of citizen uprisings What would be the best title for the list? A. Weaknesses of the United States Constitution B. Strengths of the Articles of Confederation C. Reasons for Calling the Constitutional Convention D. Anti-Federalists' Problems with the Articles of Confederation

Answer 1

The correct answer is C) Reasons for Calling the Constitutional Convention.

The best title according to the list would be "Reasons for Calling the Constitutional Convention."

Here the topic is the weakness of the Articles of Confederation, the first form of constitution in the United States.

Under the Articles of Confederation, the central government was weak. It could not collect money through taxation. It was the states the ones that remained sovereign and could collect money through taxes.

So yes, under the Articles of Confederation, there was no national currency, no national authority to tax, and the fear of citizen uprisings.

That is why the delegates of the states met at the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania during the summer of 1787, to participate in the Constitutional Convention to create the new Constitution of the United States.  

Answer 2

Answer:

D. Anti-Federalists' Problems with the Articles of Confederation.

Explanation:

Some of the opposition understood that the fundamental government under the Articles of Confederation was adequate. Still, others understood that while the federal government under the Articles was too inadequate, the federal government under the Constitution would be too effective. The Anti-Federalists contended against the enlargement of federal power.
