Answer:

1. Articles of Confederation created a system in which most political power was vested in the individual states.

2. US Constitution created a system in which political power was shared between the national and local governments.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Articles of Confederation were adopted and could only be amended by unanimous decision of all Member States.
  • States also have the right to withdraw from the confederation.
  • In the post-war crisis and the difficult circumstances that have arisen, the leaders of the revolution, especially those from the industrially and commercially oriented northern states, thought that the establishment of a firmer "union" would enable faster economic development and prosperity. In May 1787, a constitutional convention met in Philadelphia for four months, to adopt a constitutional text in September of the same year and submit it for confirmation to the constitutional conventions of the member states of the confederation.
