16.In general, the Bill of Rights limited the power of the monarchy, elevated the status of Parliament and outlined specific rights of individuals.

17.The Declaration of Independence and the Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen are similar in that they both show that the people want freedom from the current form of government, that the common people are not happy with their lot, and that they want a new leader.

18.The framers of the constitution created three branches of government to prevent giving too much power to an individual. This is known as Seperation of powers.

Hope this helps!~!!!!!:)
