Describe one weakness of the Articles of Confederation and how that influenced the new U. S. Constitution that is still the law of the land in the U. S. today.

There were many weaknesses that the Articles of Confederation held, one of the main weaknesses was the federal government did not hold the appropriate power to create and enforce laws on American citizens.

In order for the federal government to pass any important laws, they had to have approval of 9 out of 13 of the states. This was a huge problem as many of the states did not agree on everything, so no laws would really get passed that would benefit anyone.

The federal government also could not enforce laws upon citizens properly because all of the power was with the states, so a lot of the time citizens did not have to obey certain laws as they should.

When the United States Constitution was created, this was obviously resolved. This gave power to the federal government to pass and enforce laws on American citizens, but it is still regulated. The amendments in the U.S. Constitution help to keep the federal government in check and have it so they can not take away our basic rights.

the first historical instance of china engaging in internationalism was during the han dynasty.[1] at the start of the han dynasty, the huns in the north were attacking the frontiers of han and trying to obtain riches. emperor wu of han wanted to gain an alliance with a country called dayuezhi so the two countries could join together and fight against the huns.[2] to obtain this alliance, emperor wu sent zhang qian to the west to establish economic and cultural connections.[2] history records that during the han dynasty there were four primary avenues of contact between china and europe. they included the northern land route, the central land route, the southern sea route, and the far southern sea route.[1] the most famous of these routes is the central land route, or the classical silk road, comprising a network of roads stretching from northwest china to the ports of syria and the black sea, which passed through the oasis of the turkestans and northern persia.[1] the silk road was significant for chinese emperors because it provided dominance over central asia by developing resources and provided new markets for the export of china's most valuable resources.[1]
