Question:

Since the central or national government could not regulate interstate commerce or business, states began to put on the goods of other states in order to keep their own trade strong.

A.  Taxes

B.  Tariffs

C. Currency

D.  Laws

The correct answer is B) Tariffs.

Explanation:

According to the history of the United States of America, there was a time when each state established it's own trading policies which had to be honoured by other states. This involved charging tariffs on the goods with the intention to make their local economies stronger.

This period in US history is often referred to as the Confederation Period. This period in the evolution of the United States featured a weak central government, heterogeneous political character.

With the ratification of the constitution of the United States, these problems withered away to give room to a stronger central government and more unified laws. Also, it effectively ended the myriad of interstate tariffs.
