early american leaders designed the articles of confederation to create a national government that:
a. would not have many limits on its power.
b. could strictly enforce its laws in all states.
c. would give the states a lot of independence.
d. could control the entire countrys economy.

Explanation:

The Articles of Confederation was designed to create a weak national government. Under the Articles, the states retained a great deal of sovereignty and independence. The national government had limited powers. It could not effectively enforce laws or control the economy. For example, the national government had no power to tax directly. This led to problems in areas like national defense and economic stability.

Answer:

C. would give the states a lot of independence.
