There are three branches of government.

Both the U.S. and the Roman Republic divided political power among separate bodies (magistrates/consuls as executives, senatorial/assembly bodies for lawmaking and policy, and magistrates/courts for judicial functions), creating a mixed system with checks on power. The other choices are incorrect: the Roman Republic had two consuls (the U.S. has one president), Roman senators often served for life (U.S. senators have fixed terms), and Roman provincial governors were not chosen by popular assemblies the way modern U.S. governors are elected.
