Uncertainty about either legislative authority can lead to chaos and instability and threaten the nation's survival. the powers of each branch of government are clearly spelled out in constitutional states, whether federal or unitary. Generally speaking, infringements of one another's legislative powers are not allowed, except under certain clearly defined circumstances, as will be demonstrated later on herein.enparliamentconstitutionstatuteseconomic unity
