What form of government did the Articles of Confederation create?

A.) a republic with a chief executive

B.) a strong central government with many agencies and departments

C.) a government with legislative and judicial branches at the national level

D.) a league of free and independent states with a limited national government

The Articles of Confederation created a weak government and eventually failed. The need for a stronger government became apparent and eventually led to the Constitutional Convention in 1787.

So it wouldn't be B.

So the answer would be: D

"the Articles of Confederation created a national government with limited powers"

People feared a strong government because they was scared that it would lead to tyranny they felt under the British government.
