What powers did the national government have under the Articles of Confederation? The power to declare war The power to collect taxes The power to issue money The power to raise an army The power to conduct diplomacy

All of the powers listed here are powers of a national or federal government as they reflect the jurisdiction to declare war, collect taxes (though some provinces in Canada can collect some of the income taxes and also provincial sales tax as well), the power to issue money ie it is the federal govt that prints money and or makes it available for projects, though a provincial govt and probably state govt has control over some spending, and the power to raise an army is only federal and conducting diplomacy is also a federal function.
