Isn’t that pretty much the same as saying there would be no United States?

Not necessarily. We had the United States before and after the Articles of Confederation, too.

The Declaration of Independence laid out the founding principles of the United States, namely that we are endowed by our Creator with certain inalienable rights, that we choose to be ose to be led by the consent of the governed, and that when the government becomes tyrannical it is the right of the people to throw it off and institute another.

Oh, and I left out the most important founding principle: that we are all created equal.
