Question

a.) it should be split into three distinct branches
b.) it should give in to the will of the people
c.) it should control the economy of a nation
d.) it should have total power over the people

Thank you! :)​

Answer 1

The answer is A: it should be split into three distinct branches. He claimed that with the checks and balances system, then the groups of government (later to be known as the executive, judicial, and legislative branches) will never let each other gain more power, reaching an equilibrium between the three of them.

I hope this helps!
