When creating the United States Constitution, there were concerns about the federal government having too much power. Considering that the US Constitution was made shortly after America won their independence from Great Britain, it is easy to see why Americans were afraid of a strong federal government. One of the biggest causes of America declaring their independence from Great Britain was because of a strong central government that taxed colonists without their permission/input.
To make sure that this did not happen again, the Bill of Rights (the first 10 amendments of the Constitution) included an amendment that related to states rights. The 10th amendment states that any power not specifically given to the federal government belongs to each state respectively. This is why states have the ability to do things like create their own education system and driving laws.

The Continental System was a decree by the Emperor of France, Napoleon Bonaparte which was made to limit British trade and bankrupt the country.
At his mightiest, Napoleon controlled almost every powerful country in Europe, except for Britain and Russia. He found it difficult to directly attack Britain and instead wanted to bankrupt it.
However, this eventually backfired and left France in a very bad economic conditions and Britain took advantage of this.
Many smaller countries that France had annexed, took up arms against Napoleon and began to fight. With a weakened economic position, Napoleon eventually lost the Empire.
