Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

The ideal answer should:
a. Identify how the Articles of Confederation prioritized state sovereignty and power over national authority.
b.Explain that the weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation were illustrated by the fact that the federal government lacked an institutional structure through which it might execute its powers.
c.Discuss how those weaknesses became apparent after the Revolution when they led to three key failures by the national government: the inability to pay debts incurred during the war, the inability to protect American shipping interests on the high seas, and the inability of Congress to respond to internal threats, including attacks by Native Americans against American settlers and Shays' Rebellion.
d. Notethat these failures due to the structure of government led political elites like Alexander Hamilton and James Madison to call for a convention torevise the Articles of Confederation.
