Question

what are two advantages of confederation

Answer 1

Confederate Government – A confederate government is an alliance of independent states. A central organ – the confederate government – has the power to handle only those matters that the member states have assigned to it. Typically, confederate governments have had limited powers and only in such fields as defense and foreign commerce. In our own history, the United States under the Articles of Confederation (1781 to 1789) and the Confederate States of America (1861-1865) are examples of the form. Confederations are very rare in today’s world. The European Union is the closest approach to a confederation today.
ADVANTAGES
1. Keeps power at local levels preventing the growth of a large central government
2. Makes it possible for the several states to cooperate in matters of common concern and also retain their separate identities


DISADVANTAGES
1. Weakness of central government makes it unable to enforce laws or collect taxes
2. lack of unity and common laws
