Answer:

The correct answer is B. The historical figure that first proposed that power must be divided in government to prevent one part from becoming too powerful was Baron de Montesquieu.

Explanation:

Baron de Montesquieu was a French Philosopher. He is considered one of the founders of sociology and one of the most important philosophers of the Enlightenment.

The current political structure of Western democracies is partly based on ideas from him and John Locke. Important here is his idea of the separation of powers. This was the result of his criticism of French society at the time and especially of the excesses of absolutism, which he referred to as despotism.
