Although the idea of having three branches of government has its roots in ancient Greece and the Roman Republic, the modern version is attributed to French Enlightenment political philosopher, Baron de Montesquieu. His writings on the concept were probably most influential on America's Founders.

Did the articles establish permanent and separate executive and judicial branches at the national level of governmet?

The Articles of Confederation did not establish permanent and separate executive and judicial branches at the national level of government. Instead, it created a loose confederation of states with a unicameral legislature and no distinct executive or judicial branches. The absence of these separate branches led to challenges in governance and enforcement of laws, which ultimately contributed to the need for a stronger federal government as outlined in the U.S. Constitution.
