Popular sovereignty and limited government are the two principles which constitute the foundation of every State’s constitution. Option C is correct.

Within states, a constitution outlines the principles upon which the state is based, the procedure in which laws are formulated and implemented and by whom. Some constitutions, particularly codified constitutions, also function as limiters of state power, by establishing lines which a state's rulers cannot cross, for instance, fundamental rights.
