Question

which was a main reason for creating the articles of confederation?
o to determine the power of states and the federal government
o to have a tax system to generate money
o to outline the role of individual citizens in government
o to have a strong national government after the revolutionary war

Explanation:

The Articles of Confederation aimed to define the power - sharing between states and the federal government. It was created in the context of the newly independent United States after the Revolutionary War. The framers were cautious about a too - strong central government (contrary to the option of having a strong national government). Taxation was a complex issue under the Articles (not the main reason as in the "tax system" option). And the focus was more on the structure of government (state - federal relations) rather than individual citizens' roles in government.

Answer:

to determine the power of states and the federal government
