# Answer:
1. The national government had no power to tax (could only request money from states).
2. There was no executive branch (no president) to enforce laws.

### Question 13
# Brief Explanations:
The US Constitution created a more powerful government. It established a strong central government with three branches (legislative, executive, judicial). It gave the federal government power to tax, regulate interstate trade. For example, the Constitution created a bicameral legislature and an executive (president) with defined powers, unlike the Articles which had a unicameral Congress with limited powers.
# Answer:
The United States Constitution creates a more powerful government by establishing a strong federal government with the power to tax (unlike the Articles of Confederation, which had no power to tax) and by creating a system of three branches (legislative, executive, judicial) with checks and balances to effectively govern, whereas the Articles had a weak unicameral Congress with limited authority.

### Question 14
# Brief Explanations:
The US Constitution reflects freedom. The Bill of Rights (Amendments 1 - 10) protects individual freedoms like freedom of speech, religion, press, assembly, petition. Also, the Constitution established a government based on the consent of the governed, allowing people to participate in governance (e.g., elections), which reflects freedom.
# Answer:
The United States Constitution reflects the value of Freedom through the Bill of Rights (the first ten amendments), which includes protections such as freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of the press, the right to assemble peacefully, and the right to petition the government, ensuring individuals have liberties protected from government overreach.
