A brief description: This year the Republic of Poland and the Republic of Lithuania are celebrating 230th anniversary of the adoption of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth Constitution adopted on the 3rd of May 1791.
The Constitution was a symbol of the struggle for the democratic changes and for independence of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth,
but it was also the first Constitution in Europe and the second after the American Constitution in the world.
When on 3 May 1791 the Four-Year Sejm also called the Great Sejm adopted The Government Act of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth later known as the Constitution of 3 May, the Polish-Lithuanian state became the Europe’s first and the world’s second that passed the basic law. For its time, it was a progressive and bold legal act which initiated a number of reforms. It also constituted a crowning achievement of the centuries-old links between Poland and Lithuania. Today as we celebrate the 230th anniversary of adopting the Constitution of 3 May by the last King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania Stanisław August Poniatowski, it is worth mentioning that it is the May Constitution that introduced, among other things, the principle of the tripartite separation of power, and reformed the existing political system ensuring more equal treatment of all nationalities within the Commonwealth. The Constitution also expressed the nation’s will to defend Poland’s independence following its first partition by Austria, Prussia and Russia in 1772.
