Yes because back then, India was a colony of England and basically owned by a company called the East India company with military enforcement. The people had no representation and also were forced to pay taxes such as the salt tax that ghandi famously went against during the salt March.
Likewise, the united states back then was also a colony of India and had no representation as well as had to pay taxes from laws such as the stamp act. Their values in fighting for independence and free reign were very similar. So yes.

The system of checks and balances makes sure that one branch of gov. Doesn't get more powerful than the other by giving different powers to different branches. Like a certain branch can't do something without the "thumbs up" from the other branch. For example, the Executive Branch can veto bills from the Legislative Branch, but the Legislative Branch can override the veto. Hopefully that helped!!
