The correct answer is A) Avoiding tyranny of a powerful central government.
The Articles of Confederation was the first constitution created after the US declared their independence from Britain. One of the most significant reasons why the colonists broke away from the British was due to a tyrannical central government. American colonists despised the Parliament and King George III for implementing taxes without their consent. With this in mind, the Founding Fathers wanted to make sure that this type of treatment would never happen to American citizens again.
