C

D
The weaknesses written in the Articles of Confederation

Answer 1

Correct answer is D . The weaknesses written in the Articles of Confederation

Step-by-step explanation:

First three options - A, B and C are not correct simply because this were proclamation and acts brought by the British government. Stamp Act and Intolerable Acts were actually one of the main reasons why the revolution actually started at the first place. Proclamation line also was brought after the end of French and Indian war.

D is correct because the Articles of Confederation served as the constitution until the real one was adopted. Articles had many weaknesses and that is why they had to be changed.
