To print money

To declare war

To create an army

To make treaties

The powers of government are divided between the federal government and the state governments. The federal government is known as a limited government. Its powers are restricted to those described in the U.S. Constitution. The Constitution gives the federal government the power to print money, declare war , create an army, and make treaties with other nations. Most other powers that are not given to the federal government in the Constitution belong to the states.
