The video tutorial explains the structure and functions of the three branches of the United States government: legislative, executive, and judicial. It highlights the roles of Congress, the President, and the courts, emphasizing the system of checks and balances that prevents any one branch from gaining too much power. The legislative branch, or Congress, is responsible for making laws and budgets. The executive branch, led by the President, enforces laws and handles foreign relations. The judicial branch interprets laws and ensures they align with the Constitution. The video concludes with a call to practice through online games and quizzes.
