The Messy Articles of Confederation | Power and Politics in US Government 4 of 30 | Study Hall

Описание: Before we had the Constitution, we had the Articles of Confederation. This first attempt at a governing framework for the United States gave us a purposely weak national government while the states held the real power. In today’s video, we’ll dive into the problems that arose from this system, discuss how the Constitution fixed a lot of these issues, and look at some contemporary examples of how centralized power and interstate cohesion is vital to having a strong country.
