The anti-federalists wanted the amendments to limit the federal government's power.
The system of federalism balances the power of states and the national government because it gives greater powers to the national government so that our nation did not turn out as a confederacy but it also keeps certain reserved powers for the states that can be denied or taken away by the national government. Not to mention the fact that our states are involved in national politics as well as their own and thereby or national government cannot make all the decisions for the country and the states without our (the people) approval.
Denied powers are those the Constitution prohibits the federal government from doing. For instance, interfering with the free expression of religion or the right of people to petition the government.

The documents added to the Constitution that address concerns about the national government having too much power are the Bill of Rights, which consists of the first ten amendments. Ratified in 1791, these amendments were designed to protect individual liberties and limit the authority of the federal government, ensuring that fundamental rights such as freedom of speech, religion, and assembly were safeguarded. The addition of the Bill of Rights was a crucial compromise to alleviate fears of an overly powerful national government, emphasizing the importance of personal and state rights.
