Why was the demand for a constitution important in liberal nationalism?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because a constitution binds power within rules
Liberal nationalism opposed arbitrary and unchecked authority. A constitution establishes the legal framework of government, limits rulers, distributes powers, and protects citizens through recognised rights and procedures. It therefore changes political power from personal rule into rule according to publicly known laws. Option A is correct. An unlimited king, the removal of rights, and the closure of trade are contrary to constitutional liberalism.
