	Constitutional crisis Summary
		A constitutional crisis may occur because one or more parties to the dispute willfully chooses to violate a provision of a constitution or an unwritten constitutional convention, or it may occur when the disputants disagree over the interpretation of such a provision or convention.
		A constitutional crisis is distinct from a rebellion, which is defined as when factions outside of a government challenge that government's sovereignty, as in a coup or revolution led by the military or civilian protesters.

		And thus, on the first day of the crisis it became evident that the Government having nothing against being saved by the workers on strike, was totally averse to allowing the armed workers to become carried away by the struggle for Socialism and the dictatorship of the proletariat.
		During this crisis the importance of the line of the Main, as a social-political frontier, became evident.
		The object of these agreements was to postpone the struggle to gain time to the end of the Easter holidays in the hope that it would be impossible to bring the workers who had gone home for the holidays again together for the renewal of the struggle.

	II -- THE BLOOD-RELATIONSHIP AND THE CHRIST-RELATIONSHIP
		Easter is an appropriate occasion for such study, and when we think of the numbers of people in the grip of materialism to-day who have no real right to celebrate an Easter festival, it is obvious that the subject is also very relevant to the conditions of the times.
		A true Easter impulse needs to be inculcated into present-day Europe and indeed into the whole of the civilised world in order to counter the rapid strides now being taken in the direction of decline.
		Until then there can be no true Easter festival; until then the fl of mourning cannot with integrity be replaced by the red of Easter, for until then this replacement is a human lie.

	I -- EASTER: THE FESTIVAL OF WARNING
		The Easter festival, on the other hand, is intended to remind us of an event whose significance lies, not merely within the course of earth-evolution, but within the whole world-order into which man has been placed.
		Therefore the time of the Easter festival must not be determined by ordinary earthly conditions; it is a time that can be ascertained only when man turns his thoughts to the worlds beyond the earth.
		They raise a mist before their eyes when they keep a festival like Easter and are at the same time very far indeed from forming any true idea of the Resurrection of which they speak; for a true idea of it can only be formed with spiritual and super-sensible knowledge.

		But as the crisis came to a head between 1906 and 1914, the quarrel was regarded in increasingly general geographical terms as one between the northern and southern parts of the country.

		The Government of Ireland Act (1920) partitioned Ireland and created two states, one for the six northern counties and another for the remaining twenty six.

		In spite of this general course of obstruction the social-liberal members succeeded in accomplishing some minor retrenchments on military budgets before the fall, during the Easter-crisis of 1920, of the cabinet.

		By the formation of the liberal (venstre) cabinet in april 1920 the social-liberal party lost its initiative, and became, incidentally, totally dependent upon the pace wanted by the cabinet, which had not yet made up its attitude.
