Does each state in the United States of America have its own constitution or is there one constitution that governs all the states of the US?

Yes and Yes. The US Constitution applies to all the states. Each state has its own constitution that applies to that state. The state cannot contradict anything in the US Constitution, but they can add things that they feel are missing, or have more stringent requirements for certain things. And the state's constitution sets up and defines the government that will rule the state.


What are the similarities between the Massachusetts Constitution and the constitution of the United States of America?

They both have Legislative, Executive, Judicial, and Amendments. Florida's constitution is very similar to the US constitution. They both have articles, and they also have similar structures (structure) and rights! Both the Florida and US constitutions acknowledge the people as the source of all government power. They both state that all people are equal before the law. The ties between the US and Florida constitutions are so close that the Florida constitution adjusts several standards from the US constitution. Both the Florida legislature and the US Congress are bicameral! They are undoubtfully very similar! The US president and the Florida governor are chief executives who serve as commanders in chief of their armed forces! They are also assisted by the cabinet, hold veto power, and have the right to pardon. Each executive oversees a large number of departments. Both judicial branches have several levels. The Florida and US Constitution have a Supreme Court, appellate court, and trial courts. Because the U.S. Constitution served as a guideline, many state constitutions look very similar to the national constitution, including the Florida Constitution. The U.S. and Florida constitutions both have a preamble (an introduction that states the purpose and goals of government).
