Portugal's first constitution, it attempted to end absolutism and establish constitutional monarchy. Inspired by Spanish and French constitutions, it enshrined individual rights, established national sovereignty through elected representatives, separated governmental powers, and reduced royal authority. Though progressive for its era, it excluded women and the illiterate from voting and maintained Catholicism as the sole religion. The constitution remained in force only briefly, yet profoundly shaped Portugal's democratic history. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
