Articles of confederation represent continuity by applying proper rank and order to govern the country.
Step-by-step explanation:
The articles of confederation was adopted by the first constitution of the United States of America after it got independence from the British. This was written to give powers to the government of the United states after the independence giving less powers to the central and more powers to the state government.
It was in continuous order because in proper rank and order it described the powers that the government had to govern the country like the powers of all the three branches of the government, then of the state and so on. Thus a proper rank and order was maintained.
