Constitution of Great Britain

The Constitution of Great Britain is not a single written document but a collection of laws, traditions, and conventions that outline how the country is governed. It includes statutes (laws passed by Parliament), common law (court decisions), and conventions (unwritten practices). These principles define the powers of government, the rights of citizens, and how different institutions like the monarchy, Parliament, and courts interact. It is flexible and evolving, allowing changes through legislation or customs without the need for a single, formal constitution like in some other countries.
