The Articles of Confederation were just a beginning outline of what the Constitution did.

The articles of Confederation had 2 omissions that the Constitution added.

1. There was no executive branch to enforce the laws

2. There was no  judicial branch to interpret the law.

3. The Federal government couldn't collect taxes. They got their money from the states.

4. The Feds couldn't issue a standard currency. Each state had it's own.

5. Trade was not uniformly practiced by the states.

6. Often the states wouldn't pay the Federal Government because they feared other states wouldn't pay either.

7. The Constitution introduced a supremacy law where the laws of the Federal Government were above state law.

There were a couple of minor fixes

8. Laws governing commerce between the states was introduced into the constitution

9. The federal government determined how trade was to be conducted between the states and other sovereign nations.

Hi here is your answer


The Constitution fixed the weaknesses by allowing the central government certain powers/rights. Below are some of the items the Articles did not address:


Constitution became the supreme law of the United States.

Congress now has the right to levy taxes.

Congress has the ability to regulate trade between states and other countries.

Creation of a federal court system.

Executive branch with power of checks and balance for legislature and judiciary.

Amendments are easier by being ratified if 2/3 of congress and 3/4 of house pass it.

Representation in house is based on population, while senate are equal to all other states
