Constitutions, Charters and Statutes of the World Wars Era, 1914 to 1945

Constitutions, charters and statutes made in the years of the two World Wars and the interwar period, 1914 to 1945: the Weimar Constitution of 1919 and the Nineteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, dated 1920 in this atlas, belong here. A document belongs here when its cited source gives a creation year inside this span. It excludes documents of the Long Nineteenth Century, 1815 to 1913, and of the Cold War era, 1946 to 1989, which sit in the neighboring groups of the same subcategory, and it does not turn on whether the document is still in force. Each member is placed by the creation year stated in the source cited for it, so the grouping rests on a quoted source.
