Yes, your answer is correct. The founding fathers created the Articles of Confederation with the intention of establishing thirteen different governments with no central government (Option B).

To arrive at this answer, it is helpful to have some background knowledge of the time period. The Articles of Confederation were the first constitution of the United States, adopted in 1781. At that time, the American colonies had just won their independence from Great Britain in the Revolutionary War. The founding fathers wanted to create a system that would prevent a strong central government from having too much power, as they had just fought a war against a monarchy (Option A).

The Articles of Confederation established a loose alliance among the thirteen states, where each state had its own government and maintained most of its own powers. The central government had only limited powers, such as conducting foreign affairs and declaring war. However, it lacked the ability to levy taxes or regulate trade, among other weaknesses.

The purpose of this decentralized system was to avoid the concentration of power, which the founding fathers believed had caused many of the grievances against British rule. They didn't want to replace one monarchy with another form of overbearing government control. Instead, they aimed to create a confederation of independent states, each with its own government, which would cooperate on matters of mutual concern.

Therefore, Option B correctly captures the main reason why the founding fathers thought it necessary to create the Articles of Confederation.

No. Not B. The states each had their own governments already. The Articles established a national government, didn't they?
