What did new york's actions after the treaty of fort stanwix reveal about the confederation government?

The correct answer is Its authority was too limited to counter the power of large and ambitious states.

They realized that the power of a state in regards to the size of the state, meaning the size of the population, was much lower than of some other states like New York which had a huge population and thus had huge political power in the congress, specifically the house of representatives. They could control outcomes through their power.
