Alternatively, a constitution is the fundamental [[law]] of a [[nation]] or [[state]] which establishes the character and basic principles of the government.  In the [[United States]], both the nation and each state have constitutions.  Each [[state government|state's government]] is bound by both the limitations on its powers set forth in its state constitution and the limitations on the powers of the states set forth in the United States Constitution
