The framers of the u; s; constitution addressed the problem of ividing authority between state governments and the national government by alowing the staets to retain leagl authority over move matters and deletaing limited poweres to the national government. could such a solution have been implemented in the british empire

It is very doubtful the same solution could have worked.

Explanation:

The United States was born as a federation of the 13 former British colonies, which, after years of debate, finally settled for a federal pact, creating a central government and states that had considerable power over their territories, as a means of balancing the power between states and the federal government. But in the end, regional identities aside, all states saw themselves as American states and the federal government as an American institution. However, in Great Britain, history had been different. The US has states, but the United Kingdom has nations. Many people from these nations of the British Islands, especially from Scotland and Ireland, saw the English as invaders, and the British government as an institution that represented the will and the interests of the English. A common British identity never fully developed in the same sense as the American one, and the same solution probably couldn't have worked in both countries. Eventually some powers were devolved to national legislatures in the United Kingdom, but legally, they're still subordinated to the British central government.
