I believe that the Article of Confederation did lots of good for the United States of America, for all 13 colonies. The Article of Confederation did accomplish its goal to some extent. If it would have been smartly enforced this document would have been put to better use. This document served as an agreement that began to the establishment of the first ever national government among the thirteen colonies. The establishment for the thirteen colonies gave them some independence to form an alliance. With these great attempts for independence then, gave us hope for a better government now.
