1932 Constitution

The 1932 Constitution of the Philippines was a law that established the framework for the country's government after independence from the United States. It created a democratic system with a president as head of state, a Congress for making laws, and guarantees for rights like free speech and equality. The constitution also outlined the country's territory, the judiciary, and the rules for elections. It aimed to build a stable, independent government, but was replaced in 1973 to reflect new political changes.
