NRW constitution

The North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW) constitution is a fundamental legal framework that outlines how the state is governed.

It establishes processes for passing laws and managing public affairs, ensuring transparency and accountability. Essentially, it serves as the legal foundation that maintains order, protects individual rights, and guides the functioning of NRW's political system in line with democratic principles.
