The Constitution of the United States is the supreme law of the United States and considered by many as a sacred document. It superseded the Articles of Confederation, the nation's first constitution, on March 4, 1789. This translation into Haitian Creole was created because of the popular demand from American Haitian immigrants who wanted to read the document in their own language. This work includes The Bill of Rights and Amendments (11-27) and The Declaration of Independence. It is the work of a group of people who took meticulous care and time to ensure the accuracy of the translation.
