The Articles of Confederation was a unitary form of government with a strong central government located in Philadelphia. True
False

The statement is false.

Explanation:

The Articles of Confederation were the first supreme law of the United States of America, enacted in 1777, a year after the Declaration of Independence. Its objective was the regulation of the structure of the federal government, unifying the Thirteen Colonies in a federal government that would show unity against Great Britain in the middle of the Revolutionary War.

Thus, this norm established a confederate government, where the Congress of the Confederation exercised the central government through delegates from each state, who in an equal and equitable way contributed to decision-making through equal representation. But, due to the bureaucratic nature of the decision-making process and the enormous limitations that this Congress had to legislate in economic matters, the central government resulting from this norm was a weak government, which required to be modified with the enactment of the Constitution in 1787.
