3. Why did the authors of the Articles provide for a weak government?

The Articles created a loose Confederation of states with a weak, centralized federal government. State governments were left with an enormous amount of power.

This allowed for states to choose what they wanted to do in certain situations. This created a problem nationally because: the federal government was able to create laws--- but was often too weak to enforce laws, states could choose to ignore federal laws, and Congress had no power to levy taxes or control trade.
