According to the articles of confederation, the power of confederation originated from where?

The power of confederation came from the states.

Explanation:

I assume this is US History. This question is worded wierd, this is the best answer I can give. The articles of confederation were created to give power to the states from the states. Only after the constitution replaced it, did the United States have a central power. The reason was to give the states power. So it originated from the states wanting to be sovereign from each other. the question is bad btw. not worded the best, or maybe I just don't get it.
