Explanation:

James Madison expressed that "The accumulation of all powers legislative, executive and judiciary in the same hands, whether of one, a few or many, and whether hereditary, self appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny." Asserting the fact that if the power of government is controlled by a single group or body, it is the greatest threat to the liberty of the people. Major government functions should be separated so as not to give undue advantage to whoever is in the top. The system of checks and balances in the power distribution will ensure that no group or branch of government will have any influence over other groups. This provides the branches to be fortified and also prevents the encroachments of other branches into different branches.
