Answer:

The answer is A

Step-by-step explanation:

C is wrong because the purpose was not to allow states control their own militaries during war, B is wrong because it has nothing to do with drafting people during war. D comes close but it is ultimately wrong because the articles of confederation were drafted AFTER the war with England and America gained independence.

Essentially, the articles were created because America needed a basis of government after gaining independence.
