Social Studies

Answer:

separation of powers

Explanation:

Checks and balances in government describe the various mechanisms put into place by the constitution to check all powers of government and ensure there is no one person dictatorship.

Under separation of powers, all arms of government check each other's power to achieve a sort of balance that makes sure power is distributed and equality among the three tiers is achieved.

The legislative makes laws and the executive can veto certain laws by the legislative while the judiciary which is responsible for enforcing these laws may declare these laws unconstitutional and void. The legislative may also check the veto powers of the executive by amassing a two thirds supermajority(under U. S laws) by both houses of Congress to vote and therefore neutralize this power. This keeps the executive from arbitrarily and unjustifiably using his veto powers.

Darya [45]

Located in southern Europe, Greece is made up of the mainland and hundreds of small islands spread throughout the Ioanian, Aegean, and Mediterranean Seas. As a peninsula, the people of Greece took advantage of living by the sea.

<span>They were fishermen They were traders They were sailors </span>

The mountains in Greece did not have fertile soil good for growing crops, like in Mesopotamia, but the mild climate allowed for some farming.

<span>They grew barley, wheat, olives, and grapes They raised sheep </span>

The Greeks, like many other ancient civilizations, felt deeply connected to the land they lived on. While living on the land helped to develop a strong sense of pride in their country, the distance between the islands and the mountains did not help to support unity in Greece. The Minoans and Mycenaeans of ancient Greece used their geography to their advantage
