All of them were weaknesses, however the way it was mentioned in most texts it that there was no national judiciary therefore I was thinking maybe its answer C?
I was not aware of a "league of friendship".
Not being sovereign, it does not call the United States of America a "nation" or "government," but instead says, "The said States hereby severally enter into a firm league of friendship with each other, for their common defense, the security of their liberties, and their mutual and general welfare, binding themselves to assist each other, against all force offered to, or attacks made upon them, or any of them, on account of religion, sovereignty, trade, or any other pretense whatever."
