Answer:

Federal power was given to the legislative branch, where each state had one vote.

Step-by-step explanation:

Under the Articles, the states, not Congress, had the power to tax. Congress could raise money only by asking the states for funds, borrowing from foreign governments, and selling western lands. In addition, Congress could not draft soldiers or regulate trade.
