<h2>Further Explanation</h2>
The federal government was weak under the articles of the federation, although the articles of confederation only provided for the continental congress at the federal level with the power to make laws but lacked the power to enforce the laws. The federal was so weak to the extent that a state can decide to ignore federal laws if it so desires.
Under the articles of confederation, the federal government lacked the power to collect or regulate tax; there was no executive or the judiciary branch, so it became so difficult for the federal government to function effectively.
All these weaknesses strangulates the federal government and a constitutional convention was held to addresses the problems of the articles of confederation.
At the constitutional convention, a new constitution was drafted and grants more powers to the federal government. The New constitution allows checks and balances by dividing the federal government into three branches which include Executive, legislative and judiciary.
The newly drafted constitution was ratified in 1789 and replaced the articles of confederation.
