   The generalidea of a constitution and of constitutionalism originated with the ancient Greeks and especially in the systematic, theoretical, normative, and descriptive writings of Aristotle. Aristotle used theGreek word for constitution in several different senses. The simplest and most neutral of them was "the arrangement of the offices in a state". In this descriptive sense of the word, every state has aconstitution, no matter how badly or erratically governed it may be.

Taxes must be collected and revenues spent. There must be provision for preserving the domestic peace and providing for national defense.
