Why was a new government needed in 1786

The U.S before the constitution was ratified was governed mainly by the Articles of Confederation, which made for a very weak and ineffective central government, since the government didn't tax or have a strong military along with many other defects. Hope it helped!!!

The native americans, spanish, french and americans all name places in our state. the word “arkansas” came from the quapaw indians, by way of early french explorers. at the time of the early french exploration, a tribe of indians, the quapaws, lived west of the mississippi and north of the arkansas river.
