Articles of Confederation Post

Confederation Map

Articles of Confederation is located in chapter 6 page 187.

The term “The Articles of Confederation” is a main heading itself.

The text is discussing this topic as a main headed topic because the Articles were very important and paved the way for the Constitution to later come. The Articles were part of the larger event of the Patriots creating a central government.

I learned more about why it was created: to create a central government with limited powers.

I learned more what the goal of it was: to create a union where each state can keep its sovereignty, freedom, and independence. I learned more what its powers were: declare war, make treaties, borrow and print money, adjudicate disputes between states, and take funds from states for common defense. And, i learned it was ratified in 1781.
