□ republicanism
□ separation of powers

Explanation:

Republicanism is a system where people elect representatives. Separation of powers divides government into legislative, executive, and judicial branches to prevent abuse of power. Limited government and rule of law mean government has defined powers and must follow laws. Popular sovereignty means power lies with the people. Freedom of speech is a right, not a basic principle of the government structure.

• republicanism
• separation of powers
• limited government and the rule of law
• popular sovereignty
