The framers of the u. s. constitution sought to limit the powers of government by separating it into three distinct branches. what are the three branches?

The three branches are legislative, Executive, and Judicial

Hey there!

Those are the 3 branches: the Legislative, composed of the House and Senate, is set up in Article 1 of US Constitution;

the Executive, composed of the President, Vice-President, and the Departments, is set up in Article 2;

finally, the Judicial, which is composed of the federal courts and the Supreme Court. It's set up in Article 3.

Hope this helps!

Mark as brainliest, please.

i'd assume india mainly because of how isolated japan was.   plus it is a whole china away.
