The Federal Government
It is divided into three branches – the executive, the legislative, and the judicial.
The President and Vice-President make up the executive branch.
Congress makes up the legislative branch. The U.S. Supreme Court and the federal court
system make up the judicial branch. To balance authority among the three
branches, a system of checks and balances lets each branch of government have some control over the other branches.
