How is this used in the constitution?Every state has the right to a republican form of goverment and the constitution will protect you from tyranny.
Federalism
the constitution also talks about more goverment power sharing. Federalism is the thought of giving tpower to national, state, and shared powers between the national and state goverment. there are delegate powers, reserved powers, and concurrent powers. national= delegate, state= reserved, and shared powers= concurrent powers.
Checks and Balances
the goverment is really involved in not letting the goverment get too much power, but in this case the 3 branches limit each other's power. the 3 branches can check and balance or control over the other branches.
