The correct answer is B.

Montesquieu (1689-1755) was an Enlighment philosopher who contributed to set the principles of modern democracies.

Montesquieu developed the concept of the division of the powers in an state. Such power should be divided in three branches: legislative (a Parliament), executive (a government) and judiciary (court system). He promoted that a supervision system, denominated system of Checks and Balances, had to be introduced to ensure that none of the branches gathers enough power to overrule the others.

hello!

according to the passage the most suitable options are two. the first one is "by leading the aef to victory in several key battles" like the battle of saint- mihiel and the battle of cantigny mentioned in the passage you copied here. the second one is "by the aef and allied forces defeat germany" since the passage says that his army destroy the german resistance in the meuse- argonne offensive. and also, "by insisting that the aef operate as an independent force".

hope this
