What was the purpose of the articles of confederation? when were the articles ratified? what was the purpose of the central government, according to the articles? what was the most important job of the congress in 1777? how many votes did each state have? how many states had to agree to the law for it to be enacted? what was the government prevented from doing by the articles? what happened to the government because it couldn’t raise money?

The purpose of the Articles of Confederation was to serve as the written document that established the functions of the national government of the United States (each state will have its own power) after it declared independence from Great Britain. They were ratified by the end of November in 1777. Their purpose was to establish the main functions of the government. In 1777 the Congress had the job of tabbling a plan and they knew they needed to establish a national government.  Each state had one regardless the size or population of it. They needed nine states so the law could be enacted. the men who drafted the Articles of Confederation deliberately sought to limit the powers of the national government. The states maintained the right to govern their residents, while the national government could declare war, coin money, and conduct foreign affairs but little else. Its inability to impose taxes, regulate commerce, or raise an army hindered its ability to defend the nation or pay its debts.

The Continental Congress needed written rules for how they were organized.
