Am i right???

To declare war = national control.

It seems to me that A is for states only, and all the rest can be done by states and/or the nation.

Let me know what you learn.

You're welcome.

Close reading of both questions AND answer choices is always necessary!!

One is correct; one is incorrect.

Think about the difference between a state (one of 50 within the country) and the whole nation.

but it's check all that apply and on the chart it states that these two answers are limited to the state government

Yes, you are correct. Powers that are limited to the state government include:

A. Establish local government
D. Regulate trade within a state

These powers are reserved for the individual states and are not granted to the national government.
