Answer:

A. The Articles of Confederation only had one government branch.

Step-by-step explanation:

When America was first created, many people didn't want the federal branch to have a lot of power, such as Britain did. When they created the articles, they only created a legislative branch (congress). With the rest of the power, they gave it to the states.
