The concept of Constitution first originated in Britain. A constitution is a set of fundamental principles that establish the structure, powers, and limits of a government. The concept of a written constitution can be traced back to the Magna Carta, which was signed in 1215 in England. The Magna Carta was a landmark document that established the principle that the king was not above the law and protected the rights and liberties of individuals. Over time, this idea of a written constitution developed further in Britain, leading to the creation of modern constitutional law. While other countries, such as Italy, China, and France, have their own constitutions, the concept itself can be traced back to Britain.
