The Articles of Confederation reflected the principle of "limited government" in that it made the federal government dependent on the will of the states. The Articles of Confederation created a weak central government and gave the power to the states to engage in whichever parts of inter-state activities it chose to. The Constitution was largely framed in response to the weakness of the central government as a result of the Articles of Confederation.
