Four weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation were:

-System of checks and balances

-Congress had no power to tax

-The central government lacked strong powers

-Congress could not control trade or commerce

Explanation:

Although the Articles of Confederation provided some stability during the War of Independence, it soon became clear what the weaknesses were. For example, according to the Articles, Congress had no powers to levy taxes, and Congress was dependent on money that the states transferred to the central government. Also, the Articles did not give the central government power over trade between states and there was not one person responsible for executive power but that power was in the hands of a committee of Congress.

Soon after the war the shortcomings became clear to everyone. In 1786, Charles Pinckney, a member of Congress, proposed to amend the Articles of Confederation to give the central government more powers to make the country's administration more efficient. This led in February 1787 to a convention between the states to debate changes to the Articles of Confederation. Eventually, the convention, which met in Philadelphia, led to a completely new instrument of governance, the United States Constitution, which replaced the Articles of Confederation in 1789.
