The Articles of Confederation served as the written document that established the functions of the national government of the United States after it declared independence from Great Britain.  

there was no national executive or judiciary Under the Articles, the national government consisted of a legislature (often called the Confederation Congress) 

In the articles of confederation the states had the powers of enforcing laws, regulating commerce, administering justice, and levying taxes. 

Congress could coin money, direct the post office, and negotiate with foreign powers, including Native American tribes. To raise money or soldiers, it could only request that the states provide what was needed

Congress commanded little respect and no support from state governments anxious to maintain their power. Congress could not raise funds, regulate trade, or conduct foreign policy without the voluntary agreement of the states.
