HISTORY: CIVICS FINAL.

Question

HOW DID THE US CONSTITUTION IMPROVE THE STRUCTURE OF THE GOVERNMENT AFTER THE ARTICLES OF CONFEDERATION?
IT ALLOWED STATES TO HAVE THEIR OWN GOVERNMENT
IT CREATED A UNITARY SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT
IT CREATED THREE SEPARATE BRANCHES OF GOVERNMENT
IT GAVE CITIZENS THE RIGHT TO VOTE IN ELECTIONS

Answer 1

The correct answer is: "It created three separate branches of government."

The US Constitution improved the structure of the government after the Articles of Confederation by establishing a system of checks and balances through the creation of three separate branches of government: the executive branch, the legislative branch, and the judicial branch. This separation of powers helped prevent any one branch from becoming too powerful and ensured that no single branch could dominate the others. This system of government provided a stronger and more balanced structure compared to the Articles of Confederation, which had a weak central government with limited powers and no separation of powers.
