When was the state constitution written?

The basic and supreme law of the land is the Constitution of the United States of America. It consists of 7 articles, which were drafted by the Constitutional Convention of 1787 in Philadelphia, and 27 amendments. More than 200 years old, this document is the oldest written constitution of a national state in use anywhere in the world today. (The oldest written constitution of any sort in use today is the Massachusetts state constitution of 1780.) Most of the national constitutions around the world have existed only since about 1970.Refer to:http://www.answers.com/US+Constitution?gwp=11&ver=2.3.0.609&method=3


Where can I get a free online copy of the constitution?

Compare and contrast the Declaration of Independence and the universal declaration of human rights?

The Declaration of Independence was written to Great Brittain on July 4, 1776 to notify the monarchy that the United States of America was no longer a Brittish colony. Instead, the USA was now its own country with its own government. The Declaration of Independence listed reasons why the USA decided to sever its ties to the Brittish crown. The Declaration was composed during a meeting in Philadelphia at the Pennsylvania State House.The US Constitution was signed in 1787 at the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia, PA. The Constitution outlined the most important government laws and citizen rights, creating a strong, centralized government. The Constitution was submitted to the states for their approval and after the vote, the United States Federal Government came into existence. The Constitution established our government as it exists today.Source(s):http://www.loc.gov/rr/program/bib/ourdoc…
