South African Constitution

The South African Constitution is the supreme law of the country, establishing the fundamental rights of all citizens and setting out how government functions. It guarantees rights like equality, freedom of speech, and access to education. The Constitution also defines the roles and powers of different government branches—executive, legislature, and judiciary—to ensure checks and balances. Adopted in 1996 after apartheid, it promotes democracy, human rights, and societal inclusion, guiding the nation towards peace, justice, and development.
