Answer:

Yes but the government has to have more than 1 branch

Explanation:

The philosophy of Checks and Balances states that each branch of a government can stop each other so no one branch can become more powerful than the other(s).

By each branch, I mean the branches in a government that has more than one branch.

Ex: United States
