In a modern constitutional democracy, laws are created through a hierarchical legislative process. You will find the main legal principles laid out in a constitution, which derives its legitimacy directly from the will of the people and can only be amended by referendum. The constitution establishes your basic rights as an individual in the state and establishes a system of government that includes the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of government.
