The Articles of Confederation was eventually replaced by the Constitution because (a)The powers of the central government under the Articles of Confederation were so limited in terms of collecting tax money, passing and enforcing laws, and regulating trade that major changes were necessary.

The Articles of Confederation was the first Constitution of the United States but because the states did not want a national government that would be tyrannical like the British, they limited it's powers by:

refusing the national government the power to collect taxes
making the process of passing new laws very difficult as it required unanimous consent
leaving the power to regulate trade amongst states with states

Several events such as the Shay's Rebellion showed that the federal government was too weak and needed more power and so the Articles of Confederation was replaced by the current Constitution.
