The problem with the Articles of Confederation's geographic distribution of power was that each state, regardless of its size, had the same power in Congress. This meant that larger geographic states, like Virginia, had the same amount of power as smaller states. This created an imbalance of power, where smaller states were able to have an equal say in decision-making as larger states. This issue hindered the ability of the national government to effectively address the needs and concerns of all states, leading to the eventual need for a stronger centralized government, which was addressed by the formation of the U.S. Constitution.
