The constitution is basically the ultimate reference point or "bible" when it comes to government and citizen related matters. A constitution defines what the government and citizens can or cannot do, and what they are expected to do.

Responsibilities of citizens include things that citizens of a nation are obliged to do in order to contribute to the smooth functioning of their nation. While failure to perform voluntary responsibilities (such as voting, volunteering,etc.) does not result in punishment or legal consequences, failure to perform mandatory responsibilities (paying taxes, jury duty, etc.) can lead to legal consequences or punishment. 

4. Rights of Citizens---  Government protected rights found in the U.S. Bill of Rights and the Georgia Bill of Rights

In the United States, the rights of citizens include rights to liberty, freedom, religion, property, freedom of speech and expression, etc. Citizens' rights as outlined in the Bill of Rights exist to grant them a good quality of life, where they can enjoy autonomy, a decent quality of life and freedom from oppression. 

5. Separation of Powers--- The constitutional principle that limits the powers vested in one person or branch of government. 

Separation of Powers (SOPs) refers to an important principle in the constitution, which states that a particular individual or branch of government has limits to the power vested in them, and that it cannot abuse power to harm citizens. SOPs ensures that branches of the government- the legislative, executive, and judiciary branches- all have equal power with reasonable limits.
