Why did a new constitution become immediately important after apartheid ended?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because the new democracy needed rights rules and institutional basis

Correct answer: A. Ending apartheid removed an unjust system, but it did not by itself explain how the new democracy would operate. A constitution was immediately needed to set out the powers and limits of government, protect equal rights, establish democratic institutions, and provide procedures for making and applying laws. It also gave citizens and political groups a common framework after a period of racial domination and conflict. A is correct because it includes the three essential functions: rights, rules, and institutions. B is wrong because the new constitution was intended to replace apartheid, not continue it. C is wrong because democratic constitutional government requires legitimate elections rather than cancelling them forever. D is wrong because protecting civil rights was one of the central reasons for constitutional change. Memory cue: after an unjust order ends, a constitution gives the new order a fair and stable foundation.
