please help! I will mark brainliest! Briefly discuss the structure and powers of the Article of Confederation. Why did they fail?

The Articles of Confederation were for 10 years, from 1777 to 1787, the most important law of the recently independent United States of America.

These were created during the American Revolution to organize a centralized government of the original 13 states, which would allow them to face the war against the British power. Thus, it unified criteria in terms of foreign policy and military operations, providing the states with a union that allowed them to defeat the British forces since, if each state had developed a different strategy, the final result of the conflict would have been very different. In addition, it guaranteed equal civil and transit rights between states: citizens of one state enjoyed their rights in any of the other 12 states, without distinction.

Now, apart from what was mentioned, the Articles of Confederation lacked other great advantages: on the contrary, it was a very weak organization since it left many decisions to the sole will of the states, especially those related to economic issues. Thus, the federal government could not collect taxes but demand contributions from the states, which almost never carried them out; each state issued its own currency and even established customs for interstate commerce; and it could not regulate internal security issues of the country itself. These issues, taken together, were what marked the failure of the Articles and the subsequent sanction of the Constitution.
