The Three Branches Overview

The U.S. Constitution divides the national government into three branches, each with a distinct role: the legislative branch (Congress) writes the laws, the executive branch (headed by the President) carries out and enforces the laws, and the judicial branch (the courts) interprets the laws and decides how they apply in specific cases. This division of labor, not just the historical fact that the Constitution created three branches, is what actually keeps any single branch from accumulating too much unchecked power on its own.
