THREE BRANCHES, NOT ONE!
Separation of powers means a government splits its jobs into three branches so no single person or group controls everything. The legislative branch makes laws. The executive branch enforces them. The judicial branch interprets them in court. Together they create balance instead of one ruler deciding every rule alone.
