3 Branches of Government

The three branches of government is an implemented institution that functions as a balance of powers through the separation of responsibilities.

All these principles work together to expose the importance of compartmentalization, regarding the appropriate distinction of power. The three branches of the government include the executive branch, the legislative branch and the judicial branch.
