Objective: To examine the formation of the Articles of Confederation

The Articles of Confederation (1781) - the first central government of the United States Congress was a unicameral legislature with delegates, or representatives, from each state. - The main power of Congress involved foreign affairs. - All 13 states had to agree on all amendments. - 9 of the 13 states had to agree on all federal laws.

* Under the Articles of Confederation, the states had more power than the federal government. Examples: taxation and law enforcement * The Articles of Confederation had a weak federal government on purpose because they were afraid of their experiences with the British monarchy and Parliament.
