laws (regulate trade) 9/13 states agree to pass a law 13/13 states agree to amend (make changes) Each state issued its own money One vote per state, regardless of population States were sovereign (governed themselves)

HIGH POINTS
Shay’s Rebellion*It placed national attention on weaknesses of the
government under the Articles.
*It showed that the gov. could not keep order and that a stronger national gov. was needed.
* It made it hard for the Confederation to ignore the weaknesses and called for meetings to “fix” the Articles which led to the Constitutional Convention.
