The Articles of Confederation

The Articles of Confederation was the result of a nation divided and desperate after being under the rule of an oppressive king. The document was full of weaknesses that resulted in raids and economic downfall. The new nation could not survive with the lack of a national army, common currency, executive and judicial branches, and commerce laws. In order to create a better foundation for the United States, change to the Articles of Confederation was necessary. Terrence and Martina are off to continue on their journey to see just what that change looked like. The two are going to venture to the time of compromise and key leadership.
