The problem about the structure of government that early America faced was how much power the national government should have.

Explanation:

Initially, the United States was organized around a confederation, without a one-person executive power for fear of a tyranny, but with a Confederation Congress in which all states were equally represented, and in which decisions were made in joint form. The legal text under which the nation was organized was the Articles of Confederation.

The problem with this form of organization was that the Confederation Congress could not make decisions regarding taxes, trade or financing of the federal government, but only regarding war and defense. The remaining decisions were left to the particular decision of each state, with which the nation was very limited in its actions. Therefore, as a consequence of the difficulties in decision-making and the problems that these brought, it was decided to set aside the Articles of Confederation, to adopt the Constitution of the United States in 1787.

in the 1800s, chinese workers migrated to the united states, first to work in the gold mines, but also to take agricultural jobs, and factory work, especially in the garment industry. chinese immigrants were particularly instrumental in building railroads in the american west, and as chinese laborers grew successful in the united states, a number of them became entrepreneurs in their own right. as the numbers of chinese laborers increased, so did the strength of anti-chinese sentiment among other workers in the american economy. this finally resulted in legislation that aimed to limit future immigration of chinese workers to the united states, and threatened to sour diplomatic relations between the united states and china.
