Interesting. Reading the wikipedia article, it seems to be unclear as to whether any of its declarations or provisions have been in continuous effect since it was signed; i.e. whether it has endured, as opposed to being merely historical and/or inspirational. Do you have any further links/sources on this?

Our "godless constitution" has endured longer than any comparable document in history.

Ahem.

And that's off the top of my head from my country. Any other non-USians care to post comparable links?
