Read the quote by the baron de montesquieu from the spirit of the laws.

when the legislative and executive powers are united in the same person, or in the same body of magistrates, there can be no liberty; because apprehensions may arise, lest the same monarch or senate should enact tyrannical laws, to execute them in a tyrannical manner.

this quote specifically declares the need for a government

a. with more than one branch of power.
b. that has absolute rule over the people.
c. that separates church and state.
d. that can be overthrown if it becomes tyrannical

Correct answer choice is:

A. With more than one branch of power.

Explanation:

Montesquieu declared the concept of separating government authority into three categories the "separation of powers." He considered it most necessary to build separate departments of administration with identical but distinct powers. Montesquieu ended that the genuine style of government transpired one in which the authoritative, administrator and judicial authorities remained separate and kept each other in control to stop any department from growing too robust. He concluded that combining these strengths, as in the kingship of Louis XIV, would drive to imperialism.
