Mexican Constitution of 1917

The Mexican Constitution of 1917 is a foundational legal document that emerged from the Mexican Revolution, which aimed to address social injustices and establish a democratic government. It introduced significant reforms, including land redistribution, labor rights, and secular education. It also emphasized individual rights and limited the power of the Church and foreign entities in Mexico.
