The French Revolution contributed to problems in Spain, weakening it, thus opening the terrain for independence movements in the Americas.

Explanation:

The French Revolution led to the creation of new and very powerful France, led by Napoleon Bonaparte. France started offensive in Europe, and one of the countries that came under attack was Spain.

In order to protect itself, Spain concentrated most of its military in its homeland, leaving its colonies largely unprotected. The people already wanted independence, and they felt that this was the right moment, as the Spanish troops were too weak and too dispersed. The end result was large scale independence movements which led to the creation of numerous countries in the Americas.

What you are describing is the system of checks and balances.

In the United States there is a system of checks and balances. In our federal government, we have three different branches including the executive, legislative, and judicial. In our system, the executive branch consists of the president while the legislative branch consists of the Senate and House of Representatives. These different branches all have the ability to check the other branches. This ensures that no one branch or individual will gain too much power.
