Rebellion played a huge role in shaping the US Constitution. One of the reasons why the Constitution has a system of checks and balances is due to the problems American colonists had with the British government. While the Americans were colonists, the British government passed taxes without the consent of citizens. This upset American colonists and caused them to riot/rebel.

To ensure that this does not happen again, the US Constitution ensures that Congress and the Supreme Court have the ability to check the power of the president.
