Each branch of government(Legislative, Executive, and Judicial) checks the other branch. For example, The Legislative Branch checks the Executive, the Executive branch checks the Judicial, and the Judicial checks the Legislative. When each branch checks the other, they make sure that that branch is not too powerful or too weak.

Both state and federal government We just did like a gigantor report on this! It separates the powers of the different branches. for instance, The president controls the army but only the legislative branch (congress and house of reps) can declare war. And the president may veto a bill, but it can be overidded with 2/3 majority in the legislative branch. So basicly every decision that the government makes goes through a process to make sure not one section gets the entire say in the issue. its confusing I know.

The ideas of checks and balances are displayed in Federalist #51 through the system of government established by the Constitution. This system includes the separation of powers between the legislative, executive, and judicial branches, as well as the system of checks and balances between the different levels of government.
The system of checks and balances in the Constitution allows each of the three branches of government to limit the powers of the others. Also the separation of powers defines the responsibility of each branch so that there is no conflict between them.
All three branches of government were designed to have equal power through a system of checks and balances between the three branches.
Nothing, Government already has TOO MUCH POWER! (=_=v) The real answer is The Constitution. And how so? By the system of Check and Balances
The Constitution features a system of checks and balances which provide a check on the leaders of the country whether they are in Congress, the President or military leaders. The military leaders are checked by having to report to the President and are subject to dismissal at the President's discretion. The President is checked by having no power to pass laws and no way to stop Congress from over-riding his vetoes. He is also subject to removal from office by the Congress.The Constitution uses the Separation of Powers doctrine to prevent any one branch of the government from becoming too strong.
The writers of the US Constitution put into practice the idea of separation of powers through a system of checks and balances.

through the system of checks and balances
It's through a system of checks and balances. No one branch (Executive, Judicial, and Legislative) can have too much power this way, and each decision has to be passed through each branch in order to be put into action.
To prevent one branch from becoming supreme, protect the "opulent minority" from the majority, and to induce the branches to cooperate, government systems that employ a separation of powers need a way to balance each of the branches. Typically this was accomplished through a system of "checks and balances", the origin of which, like separation of powers itself, is specifically credited to Montesquieu. Checks and balances allow for a system based regulation that allows one branch to limit another, such as the power of Congress to alter the composition and jurisdiction of the federal courts.
Seven Principles of the Constitution: Popular Sovereignty - the people rule, they have the power through voting. Separation of Powers - power is split into the three braches, Legislative, Executive, and judical. Checks and Balances - each branch of government limit hte power of the others such as the President (Executive Branch) being able to veto a bill from the Legislature may override the President and make the bill a law. limited Government - the concept of controlling how much power the Federal government has through the people voting, check-balances, three braches of government, and the Bill of Rights. Republicanism - a type of government in which people elct represenative to listen to what they want and go speak and vote for them in Congress. Federalism - the sharing of power between the National and State govenments, includes enumerated, reserved and concurrent powers. Individual Rights - unalienable rights protected in the Bill of Rights, amendments 1-8 idk bruh
All three branches of government were designed to have equal power through a system of checks and balances between the three branches.
The principle known as "separation of powers" which is also referred to as "checks and balances" serves as testament to the brilliance and forethought of the drafters of the Constitution of the United States of America. By designing a tripartite federal government, a federal government with three, coequal branches, the drafters bequeathed to their descendants the last, best hope for government of the people, by the people, and for the people. Assuming everything works as designed, the drafters created the governmental equivalent of rock, paper scissors. However, separation of powers does not operate or emerge in a vacuum. It is the result of a multi-layered design which includes the complimentary principle known as "division of powers." Division of powers is the often overlooked principle of dividing governmental power among the federal, state, and local governments. Also, each level of government within the United States of America is comprised of an executive branch, a legislative branch, and a judicial branch. In sum, the complimentary principles known as "separation of powers" and "division of powers" operate and emerge in such a way as to prevent the concentration of too much governmental power in any one branch or at any one level.

Limited power refers to the restrictions placed on the authority or control of individuals or institutions within a specific context or system. It means that certain powers or actions are limited or constrained in order to prevent abuse or excess of power. This can be achieved through the separation of powers, checks and balances, and constitutional provisions.
The constitution expressly granted some powers to certain parts of government, while other powers were simply implied. Expressed powers reflect an understanding of the importance of the separation of powers. The constitution makes sure, through expressed powers, that no one entity of government has too much power.
