Answer 2

1 . A country is run by the government, judicial bodies, its people, and most importantly by the Constitution. The constitution serves as the backbone of the country. Without it, the Law and Jurisdiction will not hold up and fall apart in no time, but they are meant to stand strong. The constitution is the embodiment of fundamental regulations and principles according to which the country, state, and its people are supposed to work. The term "Constitution" got its name as the word constitution means accumulation and gathering of various aspects.

Similarly, the Constitution we are talking about also is an accumulation of many things that make up the organization of the Legal bodies of any nation. All the rules and principles that are to be established are worked up and wrote down in one place making all the things one single crafted manuscript. The Document formed after this whole procedure is known as the Constitution. But despite all of this information, we still have a question in our mind that why is the constitution important, so let's discuss further on the topic.

2 . A constitution is an aggregate of fundamental principles or established precedents that constitute the legal basis of a polity, organisation or other type of entity and commonly determine how that entity is to be governed. When these principles are written down into a single document or set of legal documents, those documents may be said to embody a written constitution; if they are encompassed in a single comprehensive document, it is said to embody a codified constitution. Some constitutions (such as that of the United Kingdom) are uncodified, but written in numerous fundamental Acts of a legislature, court cases or treaties.
