Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Articles of Confederation were submitted to the states for ratification in 1777 and were eventually ratified by all 13 states by 1781. Option A is incorrect, as there was no powerful executive branch during this period, and instead, a loose confederation of states governed the country. Option C is also incorrect since the document gave the legislative branch more power. Option D is partially correct, as the document placed limits on governmental power, but this was necessary to avoid a repeat of the tyranny they experienced under British rule.
