According to Graham Allison book, Nuclear Terrorism, only 5 percent of daily cargos into the U.S are screened where every day 30,000 trucks, 6500 rail cars and 140 ships deliver over 50,000 cargo containers into the United States. This rarely involves physical inspection which may not detect nuclear weapons and fissile materials.

A country with a Confederal system has which type of central government? Select one: A. weak B. strong
Anna35 [415]
<h2>A country with a Confederal system has week type of central government.</h2>

Explanation:

The transformation of united States from an assorted group of colonies to a successful independent nation was a great history. As the colonies grew, the people of colonies hated to be treated as the children of Great Britain.

They mostly focused on avoiding the abuses that they received by an overly-powerful government and started the constitution called the Articles of Confederation.

After the Revolutionary War, the league of friends immediately became a league of impoverished quibblers. It was not powerful enough to solve the economic and financial crises issues facing a new nation.
