Answer 2

Three reasons the Articles of Confederation were not satisfactory were that Congress could not raise money, the army had no commander, and Congress was not organized.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Articles of Confederation and the Perpetual Union were a document elaborated on November 15, 1777 by the Second Continental Congress, a meeting of the thirteen founding states of the United States of America.

The Articles established a first Constitution which organizes the thirteen states into a Confederation.

The Articles were applied until the current US Constitution came into force in 1789. They allowed the Confederation to wage war, negotiate treaties, resolve the question of Western territories, to print continental currencies and to borrow both inside and outside the country. Its organization was criticized by the proponents of a stronger central power and by the most populous states, which possessed, as the least populated, only one vote in Congress.

The Confederation was weakened by the lack of income (it could not raise taxes, and depended on the contributions of the states of the Union), the divergent interests and rivalries between states.
