Why do you think the founders of the united states borrowed ideas from roman government?

The founders of the US most likely took ideas from the Romans because their system allowed for the citizens to have a voice in who ran their empire. Considering that the US just broke away from Great Britain when starting a new country, they wanted to ensure that their citizens had a voice. When the Americans were colonists, they had little/no influence on government policies and laws.

The Romans established a republic for very similar reasons, as they had a tyrannical king who they overthrew. With a new start, the Romans created a government where people got to elect political officials, there were term limits for the two consuls, and the Senate (comprising of 300 people) had the chance to make laws. The United States probably saw this as a highly effective system in which multiple voices could be heard, so they based our foundation on the ones created by the Romans.

Every statement this is because of the same law
