168.The Articles of Confederation ,1781
The Continental Congress began drawing up the Articles of Confederation in June ,
1776.But there were long delays , and each month ' s delay made it more impossible to form a strong government . It fell out in this way that the Congress of the Confeder - ation had no real power . It could not make a state or an individual pay money or do anything at all . In the course of a few years Congress asked the states to give it over six million dolars to pay the debts and expenses of the United States . It re - ceived about a million dollars and was fortunate to get that .
