In a federalist government the powers are divided between the central government and the state governments.  This keeps either government from becoming too powerful and allows for the voice of the public to be more accurately represented. 

Powers reserved for the national government are the power to make, evaluate and carry out federal laws.  This means that they can make laws that apply to their entire district and territories regardless of state laws. They have the power to collect taxes.  The national government holds diplomatic powers.  These means they make trade deals, treaties, delegate ambassadors and handle all international affairs for the nation.  Some other powers bestowed to the national government are the power to declare war, make environmental policy, manage the national economy and issue the national currency. 

Some of the limits of the national government are the Writ of Habeas Corpus which means a prisoner cannot be held without the right to challenge his imprisonment.  The national government also cannot tax across state lines.

The 10th Amendment to the Bill of Rights grants powers to the states.  The states have powers in common with the national government such as taxing, building infrastructure like roads and bridges, making and enforcing laws and establishing courts.  They also have the power or responsibility to provide for the general welfare of the people and provide a free public school system.

States are denied the power to enter treaties or govern relations with foreign nations. They cannot declare war nor create a currency as well.

What would most likely have happened to the Roman economy if the slaves were suddenly freed?
Zinaida [17]
Slavery in ancient Rome played an important role in society and the economy. Besides manual labor, slaves performed many domestic services, and might be employed at highly skilled jobs and professions. Accountants and physicians were often slaves. Slaves of Greek origin in particular might be highly educated. Unskilled slaves, or those sentenced to slavery as punishment, worked on farms, in mines, and at mills.


Roman mosaic from Dougga, Tunisia (2nd century AD): the two slaves carrying wine jars wear typical slave clothing and an amulet against the evil eye on a necklace; the slave boy to the left carries water and towels, and the one on the right a bough and a basket of flowers[1]

Captives in Rome, a nineteenth-century painting by Charles W. Bartlett
Slaves were considered property under Roman law and had no legal personhood. Most slaves would never be freed. Unlike Roman citizens, they could be subjected to corporal punishment, sexual exploitation (prostitutes were often slaves), torture and summary execution. Over time, however, slaves gained increased legal protection, including the right to file complaints against their masters.

A major source of slaves had been Roman military expansion during the Republic. The use of former enemy soldiers as slaves led perhaps inevitably to a series of en masse armed rebellions, the Servile Wars, the last of which was led by Spartacus. During the Pax Romana of the early Roman Empire (1st–2nd centuries AD), emphasis was placed on maintaining stability, and the lack of new territorial conquests dried up this supply line of human trafficking. To maintain an enslaved work force, increased legal restrictions on freeing slaves were put into place. Escaped slaves would be hunted down and returned (often for a reward). There were also many cases of poor people selling their children to richer neighbors as slaves in times of hardship.

A characteristic that all state constitutions have in common is that they all "include a bill of rights". These bills of rights were included to ensure that the government did not trample on the natural human rights of the citizens.
