The US Constitution establishes the national government, the fundamental laws of the land, and rights of US citizens. It is composed of seven articles. The first three articles explain the separation of powers in the government, where the federal government is divided into the executive, legislative, and the judiciary. The law sets a system of check and balances to ensure balance of power. Articles 4, 5, and 6 show the concept of federalism, where the rights and responsibilities of state governments and the relationship of the states with the federal government are stated. Article 7 cites the procedures used by the states to ratify it.

The US Constitution was ratified by delegates to the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia on September 17, 1787. The US Constitution was amended 27 times to cater to the changing needs of the nation. The Bill of Rights was added to guarantee individual freedom and protection, such as freedom of speech and religion. Other amendments broaden civil rights protection and changed government processes.

The US Constitution is considered "the oldest written and codified constitution of the world".
