sep 1, 1791 - New Constitution Ratified with the support of Louis XVI

Description:

The new Constitution, supported by Louis XVI, was created by the National Assembly. It retained power of the monarchy, but gave most power to the Legislative Branch. This gave minimal taxes to "active citizens." The constitution didn't even last a year and was revised within 3 years.
