Why was a weak national government created under the articles of confederation? a. the 13 states had not evolved a national identity. b. the 13 states were wary of a british-style government. c. the 13 states were unwilling to make compromises. d. the 13 states had conflicting economic interests.

B. The 13 states were wary of a British-style government.

Explanation:

The 13 states found it dangerous to establish the British-style government. This is because the British government concentrated all power in the hands of one person, the king. All spheres of the British government were submissive to the king and this could encourage the king to be tyrant and authoritarian, acting for his own interests rather than acting for the interests of the nation. For this reason, the 13 states decided to establish a weak and limited government, where each sphere of government had a specific activity and could oversee the other spheres of government, so that none of them used the abuse of power against the nation.
