Further Explanations:

The demand of a Federal government emerged in America during 1787 and to fulfill it  an agreement was  drafted  ratified by all the 13 foremost federations of the nation. It was  accepted as their principal constitution and the articles that framed it was collectively named as the Article of Confederation. It was enforced on  1st March 1881 after being amended by the participant states.  

Framers of the  constitution wanted to ensure that a strong central government was being established  as they were having under British control. That’s why the  central government was not  framed with much authority. The most significant clause that the central administration lacking was its control over the states.It was not having the authority to compel  the state government to implement law framed by it. It proved a significant issue in cases of interstate trade. It was also creating difficulties in establishing a shared currency in the nation.
