Constitution of San Marino
- The Constitution of San Marino dates all the way back to 1600 and has been in continuous use since then, making it the oldest constitution in the world.
- The country’s Constitution is uncodified, which means that not all of its elements are law (this is why the United States’ Constitution is often cited as the oldest).
- San Marino current legal system is still based on this 1600 Constitution, so it counts as the world’s oldest existing constitution.
- The Constitution of San Marino was written in Latin and contained in six books.
- It was last amended in 2002 when the Declaration of Citizen Rights from 1974 was updated.
