Mexican Constitution

The Mexican Constitution is the supreme law of Mexico, and it was enacted on 5 February 1917. It outlines the political, economic, and social rights of Mexican citizens and establishes the structure and responsibilities of the Mexican government.

The Mexican Constitution has been amended several times since its original adoption, with the most recent amendment taking place in June 2018. The Constitution guarantees the individual rights of Mexican citizens, including freedom of speech, religion, and assembly, as well as the right to own property. It also establishes a federal system of government with a president, a bicameral Congress, and a Supreme Court.

In addition to setting the framework for Mexican government and protecting individual rights, the Mexican Constitution also addresses important social and economic issues, such as land reform, education, and labor rights. It is considered one of the most progressive constitutions in the world and has served as a model for other countries in the region.

The Mexican Constitution continues to be a key document for the country, shaping its political and social development and ensuring that the rights and freedoms of its citizens are protected.

On 5 February 2017, Google Doodle celebrated the 100th Anniversary of the Mexican Constitution.
