The separation of powers
Setler [38]3 years ago
4 0

If you said separation of powers, you got it! Remember that separation of powers was an Enlightenment idea. Madison wanted the powers of government separated between the branches. No branch would have more power than the others. In the quote, he points out that if the judicial branch could also make and enforce laws, it could threaten the citizens well-being ("behave with violence").

Judicial review refers only to the judicial branch. Popular sovereignty means the people have the power in government. This idea is not discussed in the quote. Checks and balances means that each branch has certain ways to limit the power of the other branches. Keep reading to learn more!

How would the world be different if the British had won the American Revolution? 3 sentases plz.
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

 the British victory over their colonial rebels would have deprived  other potential revolutionary movements in the Spanish New World of  their inspiration. Instead of America going to war with Mexico in 1848,  it is likely that the expanded British New World Empire would have gone  to war against, and likely won against, the Spanish North American  colony. As part of the victory treaty, the Brits likely would have  claimed the same territory from the New World Spanish possessions which  the U.S. claimed from Mexico. However, by this point slavery would have been abolished, and therefore not a primary motivation of that war.
