27 août 1791 - Establishment of the New Constitution: August 27, 1791
Description:
The French Constitution was created by the National Assembly during its revolution. It was drafted by the National Constituent Assembly and passed in September 1791. The Assembly entrusted the task of drafting to a special constitutional committee. The Assembly eventually agreed that France should be a Constitutional Monarchy, with a unicameral (one house) legislature. It re-titled King Louis XVI as “ King of the French”, granting him a reduced civil list, only allowed him to select and appoint ministers and gave him suspensive veto power.Ajouté au bande de temps:
