which principle did this excerpt establish
a. protection of the rights of the central government
b. the protection of the right to property
c. the protection of the rights of individuals citizens
d. the protection of the rights of states

The correct answer is D) The protection of the rights of states.

The Articles of Confederation was America's first constitution after they became a seperate country free of British influence. One of the most important causes of America's split from Britain was a central government that did not listen to the needs/wants of the citizens. Many Americans viewed the British central government as tyrannical.

This is why when American delegates made the Articles of Confederation, they gave a significant amount of power to state governments. Giving states significant rights/control over their respective territory would help to prevent the creation of an overbearing central government.
