Answer:
There were numerous reasons for the limitations of the national government under the Articles of Confederation. Congress had difficulty passing laws because a vote of 9 of the 13 states was needed to pass important measures. Additionally, without a president or an executive branch, there were no officials to make certain that the laws passed by Congress were carried out. Without national courts, there were no means of interpreting the laws or judging those who broke them.
Furthermore, changing the Articles of Confederation to make the national government stronger was difficult. Changes in the Articles required an undivided vote of all 13 states.
Another limitation of the new government was that Congress lacked the authority to collect taxes. Congress could ask the states to contribute money to pay the national government's expenses. Yet it had no warrant to force states to make these contributions.
Without money, Congress could not pay the country's debts or carry on any government activities that might be needed. Congress also could not compensate the soldiers who had fought in the Revolutionary War. These limitations impaired relations with foreign nations and endangered America's national security.
Under the Articles of Confederation, the national government lacked other important powers. It could not control trade between the states or with foreign nations. Instead, each state devised its own trade practices. These practices resulted in many disputes among the states and with other countries. In addition, most of the states distributed their own money. There was no stable national currency or banking system.
As a result of these limitations, the states acted more like small, separate nations rather than members of a confederation. Further weakening the authority of the confederation, states often refused to obey the laws of Congress injuring further the relations between the states and Congress.
