== Description isn't entirely accurate ==
I think the opening sentence needs to be changed to something like:
<blockquote>
Separation of powers is a [[United States Constitution|constitutional]] principle of [[United States]] government that provides a system of checks and balances and prevents one branch of government from exercising powers belonging to another branch of government or abusing its own powers.
