Answer 1

The purpose is very simple just say its to keep the rights and protect the citizens to promote happiness,life,liberty,and property.

Answer 2

1) to provide general provisions and amendments

Article 12 states General Provisions (such as the rights of the government), Article 13 states Constitutional revision (the rights of the people), and Article 14 states Transitional Provisions (the rights of schools, businesses, funds, etc)

2) the system of checks and balances

This was made to make sure that no one branch becomes to powerful. For example, the President can veto a bill, the Supreme Court judge can overturn a law, or the Congress can vote to impeach a person of standing.

3)The legislative branch can impeach executive officials.

This one is the only one in which one branch makes an active action against another branch

4)to create new laws

The legislative branch creates the bill, the executive branch passes the bill to make it a law (or vetoes the bill), and the judiciary branch interprets it when the need arises.

5) To structure the Local governments

The Article VI is titled "Local governments", and tells what each local government can do as well as how candidates can be chose, run for office, and get voted. it also tells what kind of tax the government can use to make money, as well as areas they can get more money from.
