As you have learned, a confederation is an alliance of states that typically forms for the purpose of defense. why do you think the idea of a confederation was favored by the framers at this point in american history? how would the idea continue to influence the framers in subsequent years?

The farmers in America were very fond of forming confederations, and this was mainly due to safety reasons. At the beginning it was the threat of the Native Americans since they were not in nice relations with most of them. As the time was passing, it was the Spanish that were the biggest danger, and from whom the colonies needed mutual support, and as the time was progressing it was their motherland, Britain, from which they needed to protect themselves and win over in order to gain independence.

the answer is c, all the other options are things they are known for.

hope this ☺️
