What effect did the location of Texas in the Confederacy have on the population and its role in the Civil War? Use the map above to help you.

Because Texas was the furthest point from the Union forces, it would be the last state to experience occupation. As Union troops seized other cities and states farther to the northeast, refugees fled into Texas seeking shelter, and slave owners sent slaves to Texas to avoid liberation by the Union. Texas also played a key role in keeping its ports open and out of the hands of the Union so that much needed supplies could be shipped in for the Confederacy. Little destruction occurred in Texas since it was so far to the southwest, and most battles occurred east of the Mississippi.

the articles of confederation only set up the continental congress at the federal level. there were no executive or judicial branches except within the states. the states were allowed to keep every right that was not specifically given to congress. the bonding of the states was through a 'firm league of friendship' that best served as a defense agreement against invasion. states were not allowed to use taxes as a way to discourage treaties, and states were extremely limited in their dealings with foreign nations.

not many historians today talk about the strengths of the articles of confederation, likely because of how unpopular the document quickly became. the articles did set the legislative body, congress, as the highest power in the nation because of the fear of monarchy. congress had the sole power to declare war, assign treaties, entertain foreign relations, and operate post offices. disputes between states and territorial issues were to be brought to congress. the document also stipulated that canada was allowed to enter the union if they desired.

there were more weaknesses than strengths under the articles of confederation. the lack of power given to the continental congress strangled the federal government. the articles gave congress the power to pass laws but no power to enforce those laws. if a state did not support a federal law, that state could simply ignore it. congress had no power to levy taxes or regulate trade. without a federal court system or executive leader, there would be no way to enforce these laws, either. amending the articles of confederation would also require a unanimous decision, which would be extremely difficult.

i see, would you mind putting it as one?
