Answer 1

D. the government faces legal consequences for violating citizens' rights.

A limited government is one that is designed to protect individual rights and freedoms, meaning it is constrained by a system of laws and checks and balances. In such a system, if the government oversteps its authority or infringes on the rights of citizens, it faces legal repercussions.
