The only real issues anyone ever had with the original version of the Constitution was that it was originally written that only people ages 12 and over could be representatives. This was mainly opposed by Lone Wolf Dynasty on accounts that they were a clan composed of younger members and had little to choose from.

| | == Overview == |
| | The Constitution of the LittleBigPlanet Union was the first constitution of the [[LittleBigPlanet Union|LittleBigPlanet Union.]] It is best known for its failure to provide a functioning legislative system for the Union. |

| | === Origin === |
| | The document was drafted by M88youngling on December 4th, 2013. It was discussed among the future members of the refounded [[LittleBigPlanet Union]] for the next week. The primary concerns with the constitution were from younger clans such as [[Lone Wolf Dynasty|Lone Wolf Dynasty.]] These concerns were that in the original draft of the document, there was a provision that stated that only Union members ages twelve and older could serve as Union representatives. Without many older members, Lone Wolf Dynasty had no one to appoint as a representative. After some discussion over this, the age requirement was lowered to ten. |
|
| |
|
| <p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;">and the Union was officialy formed. Clan leaders were the ones to ratify the constitution. The founding fathers were considered some of the major influential people in the Union for some time. </p>
| | On December 14th, 2013, the constitution was ratified into law. The document was ratified by [[M88youngling]] (Unaffilliated), [[Cold_Wolf102]] [[Treynota|(Treynota),]] [[Soldier-Boy_714]] [[Soldier Wolves|(Soldier Wolves),]] [[I_Keel_You_2001]] [[Lone Wolf Dynasty|(Lone Wolf Dynasty),]] [[Lgmpm]] [[New California Republic|(New California Republic),]] and [[Kazmord]] [[Sunrise Corporation|(Sunrise Corporation).]] |

| | === Initial Opposition === |
| | The constitution was first criticized by [[Lone Wolf Dynasty]] leader [[I_Keel_You_2001]] for not allowing leaders to become representatives. Despite the lowered minimum representative age in the constitution, Lone Wolf Dynasty still failed to find a member suitable to appoint as a representative. As a result, Keel argued that he should be allowed to become the representative of his clan. Union President [[M88youngling]] opposed this, arguing that it would pave way for autocracy. |

| <p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;">members. This is a problem that plagues various small clans in the Union today. I_Keel_You_2001, leader of LWD, suggested that the constitution be amended to allow leaders to be representatives. The rest of the protectors (he was Minister of Domestic Affairs at the time) opposed this on the goal of preventing autocracy within clans in the Union. </p>
| | Some time after this, Lone Wolf Dynasty was forced out of the Union by the Protectors after Keel's from the Union for repeated acts of harassment against other Union members. Keel then criticized the Union for not having term limits for the Presidency, a rule set by the Constitution. The Union administration's responded with the assertion that the Constitution grants very low power to the President, and that the President's abilities are centered only around representing the Union and to organize the Protectors for certain administrative votes. President M88youngling also pointed out that the constitution allowed for his impeachment if the Union so desired by means of the General Assembly. |

| | === 2015 Judicial Crisis === |
| | In response to the LBPU [[2015 Judicial Crisis|2015 Judicial Crisis,]] the Union administration struggled to come up with a solution to provide a judicial system to provide the foundation for [[The-Pool is-Open|The-Pool_is-Open's]] trial for alleged treason. President [[M88youngling]] wrote the ''[[LittleBigPlanet Union Legal System Protocol|LBPU Legal System Protocol]] ''as a proposal and sent it to [[TeamHeidi]] to propose to the General Assembly. Due to the direct democratic nature of the Constitution, the proposal proved very difficult to pass into law. The Union Protectors were forced to remove inactive clans and clans with members that would not vote, bringing the Union down to incredibly low numbers. Once the resolution was passed into law, discussion was reignited about the problems with the Union's constitution, and talk of either amending it or writing a new one entirely began. This led to the introduction of the new constitution, the [[Novus Carta|Novus Carta.]] |

| <p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;">innapropriate behavior, he began to question why the Presidency has a lifetime term in the Union. The response to this is usually the same, being that the Presidency has little power and serves merely to represent the Union and organize for various purposes, as well as call Protectors together for executive votes such as the entry and kicking of clans or the removal of specific people from the Union. Any and all of these actions can be opposed by the General Assembly and if needed, the President can also be impeached.</p>

| | The Constitution of the LBP Union laid the framework for the Union's government and operations. It established its legislative, judicial and executive branches, however the judicial branch was very vague in its description, having no protocol for a legal system. The document set up a direct democratic system for the Union, where after representatives get a proposal to quorum, the entire Union must vote, and three fourths of the Union's population must vote in order to reach majority.'''<nowiki/>''' |
