Question

The creation of a federal system during the Constitutional Convention was the strongest guarantee that the power of the national government would be restricted.


True

False

Answer 1

True. The creation of a federal system during the Constitutional Convention was designed to balance power between the national and state governments, which served as a means to restrict the power of the national government. The framers aimed to prevent tyranny and abuse of power by establishing a system of checks and balances, allowing states to retain significant authority while still creating a stronger national government than existed under the Articles of Confederation.
