Explanation:
The peasants, who made up 75-80% of the total population alone, were by far the largest section of the Third Estate. Around 35 to 40 percent of the property was owned by them but their landholdings ranged from area to area and over half had little to no land to live on.
D. A system of government in which a ruler holds total power, Absolutism- absolutely full control
Hitler’s rise to power started when he became politically involved and joined the Deutsche Arbeiterspartei. From there he worked himself up in the party, which later became the Nazi Party, through charm, violence and cunning negotiations. He was an excellent speaker and surrounded himself with people who, like him, were not afraid to use violence to fulfil their political objectives. At one stage, Hitler recognized that he was one of the best speakers in the Nazi party and demanded that they make him party leader or he would walk out. They conceded and he became party leader. Hitler became Führer when Hindenburg died, Hitler declared himself jointly president, chancellor and head of the army. Members of the armed forces had to swear a personal oath of allegiance not to Germany, but to Hitler. This formally made Hitler the absolute ruler of Germany.
The separation of powers was the first step to limiting power for one branch. The US built up their government based on the British, in which they had their version of Parliament, called Congress, the Federal Judge, or supreme court judge (as well as others, but we are focusing on the supreme court), as well as the executive branch, which is the President.
The next step was "checks and balances", which ensured that no one branch can be too powerful. The US president can veto Congress's legislation, Congress can override the veto, they can also impeach the president. The Supreme Court can rule laws unconstitutional, and change the laws based on what they think is constitutional.
