Under the articles of confederation, justice and law enforcement are left to
a the nation
b. the states
c. the people
d. congress
select the best answer from the choices provided

B) the states.
After gaining their freedom, many were opposed to a strong national government. To avoid any one person having too much power, which could lead to a dictatorship, the Articles gave the majority of the power to the states. However, later on they learned that the Articles actually weakened the country as a whole. (That’s when the Declaration was proposed)
