Constitution of Belgium

The Constitution of Belgium is the fundamental legal document that defines the country's political structure, rights, and government operations. It establishes Belgium as a federal state with three regions (Flanders, Wallonia, and Brussels) and three communities (Flemish, French, and German-speaking). The Constitution guarantees fundamental rights, outlines the separation of powers among the executive, legislative, and judiciary, and sets procedures for law-making and governance. It ensures regional and linguistic diversity is respected and maintains the rule of law. Overall, it serves as the framework guiding Belgium’s political life, protecting citizens' rights, and balancing regional autonomy with national unity.
