The Articles of Confederation created a national government composed of a Congress, which had the power to declare war, appoint military officers, sign treaties, make alliances, appoint foreign ambassadors, and manage relations with Indians. ... Under the Articles, the states, not Congress, had the power to tax. Hope this helps!
