b. There was no national court system under the Articles of Confederation.

Explanation:

The Articles of Confederation were the first document of government of the United States of America. They were approved by the second Continental Congress on November 15, 1777, after several months of debate. It was a non-binding guideline until its ratification four years later, on March 1, 1781. The Articles of Confederation are considered to be one of the four founding documents of the American nation.

The Articles formed a weak Confederation that united the Thirteen British Colonies of the United States, with capacity of self-government almost only in times of war and urgencies. After the end of the War of Independence and the beginning of new priorities, its limitations were evident. This document was replaced by the Constitution of the United States of America after its ratification on June 21, 1788.
