The popular Constitution of 1812 was proclaimed up to three times. In addition to the one of 12, it was also in 1820 and in a short period in 1836. In this one that concerns us marks the starting gun of the well-known Liberal Triennium and was sworn in by the king, pressured by the social situation of the country, the March 9, 1820. The Constitution established, among other important developments, that sovereignty rested with the nation, not with the king, the separation of powers or indirect universal male suffrage. Only three years later it ceased to have effect, beginning the so-called Ominous Decade.
