Say good things about this person work, Montesquieu argued for the separation of powers because he believed the government would perform more efficiently if different branches were accountable to other branches so one branch would never gain too much power. He also believed the main purpose of the government was to uphold laws, promote order and provide freedom and the protection of freedom. If the branches were combined and not monitored by the others, one branch could possibly gain too much power and next thing you know, you would have another monarchy, dictatorship or one group in control of the country. When our country was coming together and the men who were creating the Constitution looked to this as a way to protect the rights of the people and keep the government in check and honest. If Montesquieu were alive today, I would hope he would be glad to see his ideas used by a real country forming its government but I am not sure he would find the effectiveness of the separation of powers to be what he truly wrote about (too much religion in places it should not be, women having their rights and choices removed, and unfair policies and actions taken against the normal classes (not the wealthy classes), poor, elderly and minorities.). And write like a fifth grader

Montesquieu was a really smart person who came up with some important ideas about how a government should work. He believed that if different branches of government had to answer to each other, they wouldn't be able to get too powerful. This makes a lot of sense because if one branch had all the power, it could be bad for the people.

He also thought that the main job of the government should be to make sure everyone follows the laws, keeps things organized, and protects our freedom. If the branches of government were not separate and watched over each other, things could go wrong and we might end up with a ruler who controls everything or a dictatorship.

When our country was being formed and they were making the Constitution, they used Montesquieu's ideas to make sure the government would be fair and keep the people's rights safe. It's cool to think that if Montesquieu was alive today, he would be happy to see his ideas actually being put into practice by a real country.

However, I'm not so sure if everything is working the way Montesquieu wanted it to. There are still some issues like too much involvement of religion where it doesn't belong, taking away women's rights, and unfair treatment of the poor, elderly, and minorities. It's important to keep improving and making sure everyone is treated equally and with respect.
