The U.S. Constitution was influenced by several key ideas, including Enlightenment principles such as the social contract and separation of powers, which aimed to limit government authority and protect individual rights. Additionally, experiences under British rule and the weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation highlighted the need for a stronger federal government. The Federalist Papers, advocating for ratification, also emphasized the importance of checks and balances to prevent tyranny. Collectively, these concepts shaped a framework for a democratic government that balances power among branches while safeguarding liberty.
