Answer:

A. Post-Revolution Americans feared the tyranny of a strong central institution like Great Britain.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Articles of Confederation were the first documents that created the government of the United States.

After being governed by Great Britain the colonies did not want a strong central government because they were afraid of repeating the same mistakes and losing power. The Articles constituted a central govern capable of ruling during times of war or emergency but when the times of peace began the limitations of the government were seen.

I hope this answer helps you.
