In computing, a locale is a set of parameters that defines the user's language, country and any special variant preferences that the user wants to see in their user interface.
The Articles of Confederation failed because they did not give Congress and the national government enough power. The new United States just fought a war to end what they considered tyrannical rule of a strong government that overpowered local government and the leaders of the U.S. feared a powerful central government.
The Colonistsâs had just finished a long struggle with the British where they were oppressed by an over-powerful leader. For this reason when the Articles were first drafted, the colonists did not really give any person central power in the new United States government. This was largely the biggest flaw with the Articles of Confederation. Another large problem was the loss of the ability to collect taxes. The British had taxed the colonists so heavily that the U.S almost seemed to turn in the complete opposite direction.
