The Enlightenment inspired the U.S. Constitution by promoting ideas such as individual rights, the separation of powers, and the social contract. Thinkers like john Locke emphasized the importance of government as a protector of natural rights, which influenced the founding fathers in drafting a framework that ensures liberty and justice. The Constitution's design reflects Enlightenment ideals by establishing checks and balances among the branches of government to prevent tyranny and protect citizens' freedoms. Overall, the era's emphasis on reason and rational governance laid the intellectual foundation for the principles enshrined in the Constitution.
