>>211764924That's how long our new constitution has been in effect. He's taking age of constitution= age of State = age of country. We got a whole new constitution shortly after the military regime went kaput.
However I am not sure how valid this metric is for us, all of our constitutions hold on to contituity from previous ones, despite the compiled book of the brapzilian current constitution itself being 37 years old many or its laws date to previous editions, some up to the brazilian empire even.
Brazil's legislation on land and mineral ownership dates to the Imperial constitution, and most infamously despite the current constitution existing to overrule the previous one, our 'national security law' which with a little bit of extrapolation and free interpretation basically allows the government to arrest anyone anytime dates back to the regime, it was written to replace the old regime's intitutional acts, which explicitly allowed the government to arrest anyone, anytime.
