                                                              • The division of power among free
                                                                  branches of government (legislative,
                                                                  executive, judicial) and among multiple
                                                                  layers of government (national, state,
                                                                  city, etc.) means it is impossible for a
                                                                  person to become a dictator of the
                                                                  country. So, it prevents the government

                                                                  to become too powerful.






      • “Congress  shall  make  no  law

          respecting  an  establishment  of
          religion,  or  prohibiting  the  free
          exercise          thereof...”.        The
          Establishment        Clause      of    the
          Constitution       prevents      religious
          doctrine or laws from being imposed
          by  the  government.  In  other  words,
          people  can  create,  enjoy,  and
          practice any religion they wish.

                                                                  communities. This freedom gives them
                                                                  even a bigger motivation to be patriotic.

                                                                  And this patriotism was mainly born,
