What is the principle of a limited government?

A government with undefined powers
A government whose powers are unlimited
A government whose powers are defined and limited by a constitution
A government controlled solely by one party

The correct answer is: A government whose powers are defined and limited by a constitution

A limited government means that the government's powers are defined and constrained by a constitution. This means that the government cannot exceed its designated powers and must follow the guidelines set by the constitution. Option A, a government with undefined powers, would indicate a lack of structure and potentially lead to an unlimited government. Option B, a government with unlimited powers, goes against the concept of a limited government as it has no restrictions or limitations. Option D, a government controlled solely by one party, does not necessarily signify a limited government as the ruling party may have unlimited powers and control. Thus, the best answer is option C, a government with defined and limited powers.
