Both were to combine common functions of the 13 colonies that were primarily limited to fighting the war and dealing with foreign relations.

I suggest that unifying economies was not part of the Articles of Confederation.

I suggest that the intent was that the States were to maintain their sovereignty with the only difference in this intent being that the Constitution provided additional limited delegated powers to the federal government. Over time, without amendment, the federal government increased its powers beyond those delegate until in the 1860s the sovereignty of the States (although yet existing Constitutionally) were functionally lost.

The articles of confederation did not create a stability of ability between the states. It additionally enable the states do too plenty on their own. the form gave then federal government greater suitable ability to maintain order and make useful the states have been given alongside.

They were both attempts to unify the efforts and economies of the 13 colonies.
