Below

Step-by-step explanation:

There is no centralization. The 13 states were only weakly connected by the Articles of Confederation. The President, Congress, Senate, and House of Representatives were all established under the Constitution.

Answer:

Congress had no power to coin money, therefore each state developed its own currency. Congress was unable to regulate interstate and foreign commerce; some states refused to pay for goods they purchased from abroad. Congress was unable to impose taxes; it could only borrow money on credit.
