	HELLENIC PARLIAMENT - History of the Constitution
		The Constitution that ensued in March of 1844 from the workings of the "Third of September National Assembly of the Hellenes in Athens" was a Constitutional Pact, in other words a contract between the monarch and the Nation.
		The Constitution reiterated various clauses found in the Constitution of 1844, such as that the King appoints and dismisses the ministers and that the latter are responsible for the person of the monarch, but it also allowed for the Parliament to establish "examination committees".
		After the liberation of Greece in the fall of 1944, the Constitution of 1911 was again activated, albeit deformed due to the illiberal measures introduced via constitutional acts and resolutions of the turbulent period of the Liberation and the civil war.

	Eder,_Aristocrats_and_the _Coming_of_the_Athenian_Democracy
		According to the linear model of constitutional development common since the Enlightenment (as opposed to the cyclical models prevalent in antiquity), we are inclined to see democracy as the end and climax of all constitutional evolution and even as the end of history (Isensee 1995:11-18).
		By "constitution" we understand the total of written and unwritten norms concerning the durable existence of the state as well as the rules and procedures determining the relation between the state and the citizens (after Herzog 1971:146-47).
		It seems, then, that the formal constitutional continuitv in the fourth century was accompanied by an ideological change, that is, by growing and conscious support of the people for a democratic constitution that was based on law and self-control.

	Ancient History Sourcebook: Aristotle: Spartan Constitution
		The older constitutions are generally less elaborate than the later, and the Lacedaemonian is said to be, and probably is, in a very great measure, a copy of the Cretan.
		Further, the two constitutions are similar; for the office of the Ephors is the same as that of the Cretan Cosmi, the only difference being that whereas the Ephors are five, the Cosmi are ten in number.
		The license of the Lacedaemonian women defeats the intention of the Spartan constitution, and is adverse to the happiness of the state.
