Answer 1

Articles of Confederation — Weak national government; most power held by the states (limited congressional authority)

Concept of States' Rights — Principle that states hold primary authority and can resist or nullify federal laws (favoring state sovereignty)

U.S. Constitution — Stronger federal government with separated powers, checks and balances, and shared (federal/state) authority
