to prevent the government from abusing people's rights.
Explanation:
The United States Bill of Rights was the document made official on December 15, 1791, after the United States achieved its long-awaited independence during the American Revolution. The Bill of Rights establishes the principles of the American government, states that the country will be centered on a federalist government and therefore limited as a strategy to protect citizens from a central power. It is already stated in the Preamble of the Bill of Rights that this government limitation will be made to prevent the government from abusing the rights of people.
