Answer:

So there is no one person who is too powerful in the government.

Explanation:

The US was formed after the colonial leaders agreed that King George III was a tyrant, and they wanted a say in their own government. Once they won the revolution, many feared that they would end up with another absolute ruler like many European countries had at the time. The original government, the Articles of Confederation, show this fear as there was no strong federal government or leader. This didn't work out so the founding fathers created the Constitution which split the government between those who make the laws (legislative branch), approves and carrys out the laws (executive branch) and decide whether the laws are Constitutional (judicial branch). With this set up, no one person can become an absolute ruler or dictator.

Answer: the high taxes paid by the Third Estate

Explanation:

The Third Estate was part of the representative assembly of the Kingdom of France. There were 3 estates in the assembly and the Third Estate was at the lowest because it comprised of the common people.

The Kingdom's tax policies made it such that the First(Clergy) and the Second (Nobles) estates did not pay much taxes which meant that it was the Third Estate that were paying taxes.

The rock in this picture is meant to symbolise that tax that they paid which was then used by the First and Second Estates which are the men on top of them.
