How does the rule of law work?

The Rule of law is a principle that all people are subject to the same laws. It is a legal system that allows a country to function and govern itself. In the United States, we have a system of checks and balances, so that each branch of government is responsible for ensuring that the other branches are following the law. The courts enforce the law, and the legislature makes laws, and the executive enforces those laws.
