Answer 1

To accurately answer your question about the quote and which aspect of self-government it highlights, I would need to see the original quote. However, based on the options you've provided, I can offer some guidance on what each one typically refers to:

1. **Federalism**: This refers to the distribution of power between a central authority and its constituent units (like states).

2. **Checks and balances**: This aspect ensures that no single branch of government (executive, legislative, judicial) has unchecked power over the others.

3. **An elected legislature**: This highlights the concept of representative democracy, where lawmakers are chosen by the citizens.

4. **Mercantilism**: This is an economic theory that emphasizes government regulation of the economy to enhance state power.

If the quote points towards concepts like power distribution or government regulation, the relevant choices would differ.

Please provide the quote for a precise determination.
