Answer:

They decided to go forward with a new constitution that would completely guard against tyranny. The Constitution guarded against tyranny in several ways such as federalism, separation of powers, checks and balances, and the equality of large and small states.

Explanation:

Longer answer

How did the Constitution guard against tyranny? Do you know why our country isn’t ruled by one person with complete control such as a dictator? It is because of our Constitution guards against tyranny. Tyranny is defined as harsh absolute power in the hands of one individual. In 1787, 55 delegates met in Philadelphia to fix the existing constitution, the Articles of Confederation. They decided to go forward with a new Constitution that would completely guard against tyranny. The Constitution guarded against tyranny in several ways such as federalism, separation of powers, checks and balances, and the equality of large and small states. The first guard against tyranny was federalism, which means the division of power between the state governments and the central government. Certain power is given to the state governments, A certain power is given to the central government, and certain power is shared between the two governments. For example, powers given to the central government are powers such as regular trade, print money, declare war, and set up the post office. Powers given to the states are powers, such as to set up local governments, hold elections, and establish schools. Powers shared by the two governments are powers such as making laws, enforcing laws, and taxing. Federalism protects against tyranny. The second guard against tyranny was the separation of powers, which means the power is separated into three branches. This is done so one person or branch of government cannot become too powerful. These branches of power are separate and distinct. For example, the legislative branch consists of the Senate and House of Representatives, the executive branch.
