Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, there lived a group of people who were governed by a constitution. This constitution set out the rules and laws by which the people were to live and govern themselves.

One day, a group of people known as the rebels, decided they did not agree with some of the rules set out in the constitution. They wanted to change them, but the government, made up of the executive, legislative and judicial branches, did not agree.

The rebels and the government could not come to a compromise, so the rebels decided to start a rebellion. They wanted to overthrow the government and create a new one that would agree with their ideas.

The government, however, did not want to lose their power, so they fought back against the rebellion. The fighting went on for a long time, and many people were hurt and killed.

Finally, the two sides decided to come together and make a treaty. This treaty would set out new rules and laws that both the government and the rebels could agree on.

With the treaty in place, the land was finally at peace. The people were happy and the government was able to work together with the rebels to make the land a better place for everyone.

From then on, the government, made up of the executive, legislative and judicial branches worked together, and the people of the land were governed by a federal system which was fair for all.

The end.
