During whose reign are you talking about?
The system of checks and balances is the American Federal Government's way of ensuring that each branch has its own responsibilities but also has responsibilities, limits, and obligations as it pertains to the other branches of government.
This has worked well for most of the country's history but since the 1930s, the Presidency/Executive branch has become the branch that is possibly more powerful than the rest, especially in the minds of the people.
This is seen in the modern era, with the Presidency leading legislative pushes and leading their parties representatives in the House and Senate.
To fix this, the first step would be for the Senate to regain its authority when it comes to Foreign Affairs. Starting in the 1950s, the Executive branch used legal but suspect schemes to circumvent Congress' singular right to Declare war.
So, for the last 17 years, America has been fighting a war on terrorism without a Congressional declaration of war. The last time Congress declared war was in 1942, so Korea/Vietnam/Gulf War I/etc. were all accomplished without a Congressional declaration.
What we will need to see if Congress stepping up and acting like a co-equal branch of Government, instead of a branch subservient to the interests of the executive branch.
Our 23rd president was Benjamin Harrison. He went into office in the year 1888.
The Ming Dynasty came to an end as the Ariel Aisin-Gioroinvaded the mainland China and took over the original Ming government.
The course:
In 1644, the army of Ariel Aisin-Gioro infiltrated the mainland, soon took over Beijing,the Capital of Ming Dynasty.
A new emperor of Ariel Aisin-Gioro was then crowned as the absolute ruler of China, and the called the dynasty “Ching dynasty”.
Factors causing the end to Ming Dynasty:
The extremely one-sided power of emperor-
The emperors were very suspicious on their officials and helpers might took over their place.
Policies were then carry out to concentrate the ruling power to the emperor only.
However,this came with heavy duties as well, once the one who inherited the role of absolute ruler was not hard-working enough, the government’s ruling would go down the slope.
The treatment towards the officials- the Ming emperor treated their officials very harshly as they wanted to show their supremacy.
The officials had to kneel before the emperor when they talk no matter who they are. They also had to call themselves “slaves” before the ruler, and whenever they did some mthing that upset the emperor they might get beaten, sometimes to death.
Given the situation,the officials tried their best not to interfere with ruling lest getting punished. This caused the ruling to be ineffective without the help of officials. Causing the ruling to went down hill eventually.

1. What were some groups that support slavery in the mid-1700s?
The cotton industry in the South of the United States in 1700 caused a great movement in favor of slavery. This was because the slaves represented cheap labor. Its owners benefited greatly from this process.
This was the reason why much of the southern United States defended slavery. This decision separated the country into slavery states and free states through the Mason-Dixon line, which separated Maryland and Delaware (slavers) and Pennsylvania (free).
2. What were some groups that began to fight slavery in the mid-1700s?
The first manifestations against the slavery gained importance in the middle of the XVIII century. The role of free African-Americans was essential since they encouraged emancipation from their political and social position. They wanted to end the slave trade, to finally abolish slavery in the United States.
3. Why did people begin to question the worth of slavery?
Teorists like the French philosopher Rousseau began to question the morality of slavery, a process of strong disputes began in America. The slave trade from Africa to America was significant between 1400 and 1800, a historical phenomenon that marked the genesis of millions of families around the world.
They were the reflections of Europeans and American people who argued that slavery went against the law of God and human decency that began to question the trafficking of people.
