Anti-federalists opposed ratification of the constitution until they were assured that it would not interfere with the natural rights of citizens, which is why they insisted on there being a "Bill of Rights" that explicitly protected these basic rights.

Anti-Federalists opposed ratification of the Constitution until they were assured that individual rights would be guaranteed by a bill of rights.

The Articles of Confederation, in place prior to the ratification of the Constitution of the United States of America, had granted stronger authority to the states.  Patrick Henry and other Anti-Federalists were concerned about too much power winding up in the hands of the federal government and its executive branch, thus allowing a small number of national elites to control the affairs of the USA.  They feared this also would diminish the rights and freedoms of individual citizens.

The Bill of Rights, laid out in the first ten amendments to the Constitution, provided some reassurance to Anti-Federalists after the fight over ratification. The US Constitution was ratified in 1788.  The Bill of Rights was created in 1789 and ratified in 1791.

Discuss one recent real-world example of balance of power, and explain the impact of it.
joja [24]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

In response to the coronavirus pandemic, states have issued hundreds of rule changes ranging from public health and safety to business protocols and election procedures over the last few years.

Governors usually have the power to declare a state of emergency when there are major natural disasters, disease epidemics, or other threats to public health. Many states ordered lockdowns or home quarantines early in the pandemic.

However, in the months that followed, some states saw a schism between the executive and legislative branches over how to implement the orders. Hundreds of bills were introduced by legislators to limit the powers of governors in times of emergency, and ten of these were eventually passed into law in eight states.

Surprisingly, the governorship and legislature in the majority of those eight states were controlled by the same political party. Republicans ran for governor in three states: Arkansas, Ohio, and Utah. In Colorado and New York, two of them were Democrats: Kansas, Kentucky, and Pennsylvania are the other three states with Democratic governors but Republican-majority legislatures.
