Question

after the revolutionary war, how did the national government get its money? (1 point) britain was forced to pay damages to its former colonies. france and spain extended credit to the new country. the continental congress requested money from the states. citizens paid to vote in national elections.

Explanation:

After the Revolutionary War, the Continental Congress, which was the national - level governing body at the time, had limited means of revenue. It requested money from the states as it had no power to levy taxes directly. There was no system of national elections where citizens paid to vote, and the other options about Britain paying damages and France/Spain extending credit are not related to how the American national government (Continental Congress) got money.

Answer:

The Continental Congress requested money from the states.
