Why was a weak national government created under the articles of confederation? a. the 13 states had not evolved a national identity. b. the 13 states were wary of a british-style government. c. the 13 states were unwilling to make compromises. d. the 13 states had conflicting economic interests.

B. The 13 states were wary of a British-style government.

Explanation:

The 13 states found it dangerous to establish the British-style government. This is because the British government concentrated all power in the hands of one person, the king. All spheres of the British government were submissive to the king and this could encourage the king to be tyrant and authoritarian, acting for his own interests rather than acting for the interests of the nation. For this reason, the 13 states decided to establish a weak and limited government, where each sphere of government had a specific activity and could oversee the other spheres of government, so that none of them used the abuse of power against the nation.

question - in 1827, john walker, a druggist in a small english town, tipped a splint with sulphur, chlorate of potash, and sulphid of antimony, and rubbed it on sandpaper, and it burst into flame. the druggist had discovered the first friction-chemical match, the kind we use to-day. it is called friction-chemical because it is made by mixing certain chemicals together and rubbing them. although walker's match did not require the bottle of acid, nevertheless it was not a good one. it could be lighted only by hard rubbing, and it sputtered and threw fire in all directions. in a few years, however, phosphorus was substituted on the tip for antimony, and the change worked wonders. the match could now be lighted with very little rubbing, and it was no longer necessary to have sandpaper upon which to rub it. it would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. this was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar. according the paragraph what was the benefit of the new phosphorus match? it burst into flame when rubbed on sandpaper. it was made by mixing chemicals. it could be ignited on any dry surface. it threw fire in all directions.
