The government did not have a separation to just vote separate digital events.

Did you know?

Did you know that one of the weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation, the first governing document of the United States, was the lack of a separation of powers? This meant that there was no distinct branch of government specifically responsible for making decisions or voting on important digital events. Furthermore, under the Articles of Confederation, states were not allowed to print their own currency, leading to a centralized control over monetary matters. Additionally, the president did not exist under this system, but the government had the authority to spend taxes freely without proper checks and balances. Lastly, the government had excessive control over trade, which restricted individual state powers in this area. These weaknesses contributed to the eventual need for a stronger centralized government, leading to the adoption of the Constitution.
