The authors of the Constitution were extremely concerned with balancing power and particularly worried about limiting the power

of the presidency. What are the two important ways they did it? From what you know about the presidency today, do you think they did a good job of giving the president enough power to do his job but not so much that he could do things he shouldn’t? Give some examples.

Two important ways that the authors of the constitution limited the powers of the president is with separation of powers and checks and balances and a bicameral legislature. I believe that they did do a good job of balancing that power from what I've seen today, although there are loopholes. For example, the president is the commander-in-chief of the army, however only Congress can declare war. But the loophole to this is that the president can actually still wage a war as long as he doesn't "declare" it a war, he can still send troops abroad.

How did the islands make the development of Rome difficult
lisov135 [29]

Two mountain ranges, the Alps and the Apennines, helped to protect Rome from invasion. The Apennines divide the Italian peninsula in half and, according to SPQR Online, allowed the Romans to mass forces for counter-attack whenever they were threatened.
