Australian Citizenship Practice Exam

The three arms of government, legislative, executive, and judicial power, are all designed to have checks and balances over each other. This means that no one branch has complete control over the government. Option A is incorrect because the use of military force to control the government is undemocratic and often leads to authoritarian rule. Option B is incorrect because the concept of royalty controlling the government is not applicable in all countries. Option D is incorrect because a single dictator having complete control over the government also goes against democratic principles. Therefore, the power of government is most effectively controlled through a system of checks and balances implemented by the three branches of government.
