The Ambitious Commission

The will of the people is often side-tracked and the lack of a constitution in our code of law makes the rights and privileges of the common man a fragile guarantee that could be altered at the whim of a new edict. Let us summon a commission to address these issues. The commission will be entrusted with the crucial mission of crafting a constitution that reflects the diverse perspectives and aspirations of the Nobility, Clergy and Burghers, fostering a sense of civic engagement and ensuring a democratic foundation for our society.

2357historical_info = flavor_rus.25.historical_info In 1767 Catherine 'the Great' convened a commission composed of delegates from all the provinces and all social classes, except the serfs, to ascertain the true wishes of her people and frame a constitution. The debates went on for months and came to nothing. Catherine's Instruction to the commission was a draft of a constitution and a code of laws. It was considered too liberal for publication in France and remained a dead letter in Russia.
