Which principle expresses the idea that government is bound by the rule of law? federalism limited government separation of powers judicial review

There is no clear answer to this but I believe, as a former Social Studies teacher and third-year law student, that the best answer to this is judicial review.

Judicial Review exists based on the general principle that the Government has to follow the rules of the game, namely the Constitution, and that it is the Judicial branches duty to review the actions of the Executive and Legislative branches to see if they are following the rule of law.

"a government in which power is divided between state and national levels". federalism is a system of government in which entities such and state and province, share power with the national government.
