Discuss 3 weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation and how it led to a new Constitution. (4 points)make this the shortest u can

1. Weak Central Government: The Articles of Confederation created a weak national government with no executive branch, hindering effective leadership and decision-making.

2. Inability to Tax: Congress lacked the power to levy taxes, leading to financial instability and an inability to pay debts or support a military.

3. Difficult Amendments: Amendments required unanimous consent from all states, making it nearly impossible to address issues and adapt to changing needs.

These weaknesses prompted calls for a stronger federal structure, culminating in the Constitutional Convention of 1787 and the drafting of the U.S. Constitution.
