9.1) select three purposes of the articles of confederation, the united states’ first constitution.
□ to establish a weak king who would obey the will of the people
□ to declare the colonies independent from foreign nations
□ to establish the 13 colonies as the united states of america
□ to create a strong central government that would keep the states in line
□ to create an organized government to manage the american revolution
□ to provide protection for the 13 states against foreign invasion

Explanation:

The Articles of Confederation was the first U.S. constitution, created after declaring independence. Its core purposes were to formalize the union of the 13 colonies as the U.S., create an organized governing structure for the Revolutionary War, and provide collective protection against foreign threats. It established a very weak central government (not a strong one) and had no role in creating a king, as the U.S. was a republic.

Answer:

□ to establish the 13 colonies as the United States of America
□ to create an organized government to manage the American Revolution
□ to provide protection for the 13 states against foreign invasion
