What were the features of the government set up under the articles confederation and the constitution?

The government under the Articles of Confederation established a weak central authority, with a unicameral legislature that lacked the power to impose taxes or regulate commerce, leading to challenges in governance. In contrast, the Constitution created a stronger federal government, featuring a bicameral legislature, an executive branch led by a president, and a judiciary, while also allowing for a system of checks and balances among these branches. Additionally, the Constitution granted the federal government the power to tax, regulate interstate commerce, and enforce laws, addressing the weaknesses of the Articles.
