Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf A. \ Government \ power \ should \ be \ separated \ into \ three \ parts }}

Explanation:

Montesquieu was a French philosopher whose ideas influenced many governments, including the United States.

Montesquieu wrote a book called The Spirit of Law. In this book he recognized that excess power was not good, so he introduced an idea known as separation of power. This would separate the government into multiple branches, so that one person/group couldn't take over.

We see this in our US Constitution. There are three branchs: executive, judicial, and legislative. Each branch has different powers and can "check" the others.

The best answer choice is A: government power should be separated into three parts

Blababa [14]

Answer:

Group 2

Explanation:

Federalists were individuals who were in favor of a stronger federal (aka central) government. Federalists believed that the US needed a stronger federal government after the Articles of Confederation, America's first constitution,  were a failure. The Articles of Confederation gave almost no real power to the federal government. This resulted in several different problems.

This is why the federalists favored a stronger federal government that had the ability to tax, regulate trade between states, and negotiate deals with other nations.
