America's first government was inadequately prepared and weak for a number of reasons.
Firstly, the U.S. government could not print money, and when they could, the US currency was useless outside of the United States.
Secondly, the U.S. could not impose taxes in a federal level for fear of public outcry, especially as they had just broken away from Great Britain for the very reason of taxes. This meant that the U.S. government had no funds for any governmental actions.
Thirdly, the federal government had no foreign relations powers. Each state individually made trade deals and alliances with different nations, independent on each other.
Fourthly, the U.S. was not able to make good on their war debts and promises to investors, both at home and also foreigners.
