When it comes to the American government, checks and balances are
the keys to success. That’s because the Founding Fathers distributed

judicial and legislative. In The Three Branches of Government,

while exploring each of the three branches in detail. It’s quite a
balancing act - but one that keeps the American government in check! 23 minutes.
