A toast to the Articles of Confederation!

The Articles of Confederation were part of a giant milestone in American government, even though the initial attemped was very poor. At first, the Articles didn't work very well, since 2/3rd voting made conflicts and decisions difficult to handle, since not all of the 13 colonies agreed on solutions. It helped bring the colonies together somewhat, giving them all a main government, helping to prove to Britian and France that they were capable of governing themselves. Even though the Articles of Confederation were not considered to be anywhere near a good form of overall law, the Articles paved the way for the need to better the government and laws in the newly founded United States.
