First constitution of the Second Polish Republic, adopted in 1921 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Second Polish Republic adopted the March Constitution on 17 March 1921, after ousting the occupation of the German/Prussian forces in the 1918 Greater Poland Uprising, and avoiding conquest by the Soviets in the 1920 Polish-Soviet War. The Constitution, based on the Constitution of the Third French Republic, was regarded as very democratic. Among others, it expressly ruled out discrimination on racial or religious grounds.[1] It also abolished all royal titles and state privileges, and banned the use of blazons.
