The correct answer is C. Federalism

Explanation:

Federalism is an ideology and principle in government that defines power should be divided between local and national entities. This means all power is not held by the national government but there are local governments such as state governments that have part of the power and responsibilities. In this way, abuse of power by a unique type of government and local government can respond better to local needs. This occurs in the government of the U. S. because there are state governments. Also, this is a key principle in the constitution. Thus, the key idea that creates the division of power between national and states government is federalism.
