Speaker 1: a national government needs to be strong to be able to function efficiently. speaker 2: the most important concern for a government is to evenly balance state and federal power. speaker 3: a centralized government is a threat to people's freedom. speaker 4: it is essential for a government to have multiple branches that limit and balance each other's powers. which speaker would most likely support the government established by the articles of confederation?

The correct answer is "speaker 3". The speaker that believes that a centralized government is a threat to people's freedom, is the one most likely to support the government established by the Articles of Confederation. On March 1st of 1781, all 13 states ratified the Articles of Confederation, the first Constitution of the United States. In the Articles, a Confederation as a way of government was formed, with most of the power given to the state's governments, and a central government small and weak.
