The three branches of government are the executive, the legislative, and the judicial branch. The legislative branch creates laws. The executive branch enforces and makes the proposed laws official. The judicial branch interprets the law, either to make sure that it follows the constitution of the land, or in criminal court cases. Here in the United States, the legislative branch is Congress. The executive branch is the President. The judicial branch is headed by the Supreme Court, but every other judge is a part of it. We also have the ability to make sure that each branch doesn't gain supreme power.
