In what ways did the Articles of Confederation limit the effectiveness of the national government? ASAP ITS DUE AT 11:59PM!!

The Articles of Confederation had many weaknesses that divided the country. Congress had no power to raise taxes.  

Explanation:

Congress had no power to raise taxes. The government could not enforce laws in states. Only states had the right to raise taxes and they often do not raise tax money for the government. Without taxes the government was not able to pay off debts. Congress lacked the power to negotiate trade agreements and control trade. States can form their own trade agreements. They can even enforce tariffs on other states. There was also no uniform currency system in the United States. Each state had their own form of currency. With little organization trade was complicated and not efficient. Congress was not able to form an army and had to rely on state militias. Without a strong army the government was not able to deal with threats from other foreign countries (like Spain and Great Britain) and rebellions. In addition, each state had only one vote and did not represent states with larger populations fairly. Congress needs nine out of thirteen states approval to pass laws. This made it difficult to pass laws. Amendments were almost impossible to pass because it requires all thirteen states consent. Although Congress can pass laws, citizens had to follow their own state laws. This showed that states had the power to create their own laws and enforce them. There was no president appointed to lead the country. In conclusion, the government gave too much power and freedom to the States which caused the country to be divided.
