One potential problem with the Articles of Confederation, based on the provided excerpt, is that smaller states had the same voting power in Congress as larger states. This equal representation regardless of size or population could lead to imbalances in decision-making and representation, particularly if the interests of smaller states were consistently prioritized over those of larger states. This could create frustration and challenges in achieving consensus on important issues.
Under the articles each state sent one delegate to Congress thus each state no matter its size apart or population had one vote. Congress did have the pirate declared war it could point military officers coin, money and operate posters. It was also responsible for foreign affairs and could sign treaties.
