The Articles of Confederation had only one branch, the Legislative Branch (Congress). It did not have an Executive Branch (President).

Explanation:

Because the colonies had recently fought the American Revolution against their ruler, the King of England, they did not want to create a government that gave too much power to one person. Their dislike of the King's power and control encouraged them to NOT have a single leader but a Legislative Branch.
