The articles of confederation allowed each of the 13 states to have a vote regardless of population. Why did this cause the Articles to be unfair from a democratic standpoint?

All the states didn't have the same amount of people so not everyone was being fairly represented in the bigger states that only had one vote for everyone who lived there
