The Articles of Confederation did not establish the principle of separation of powers as they only created a single legislative branch, lacking separate executive and judicial branches. The correct answers to the questions are C and B. This structure led to significant weaknesses in governance, as there was no mechanism to enforce laws or collect taxes.
