📜 Constitutional History — Six Republics
Korea's constitutional history spans six periods, from the First Republic (1948) to the Sixth Republic (1987–present). Each gave way to the next through constitutional amendment and democratization movements.
🏛 Government — Three Branches
Korea adopts a separation of powers into three mutually checking branches — the legislature (National Assembly) that makes law, the executive (President and government) that carries it out, and the judiciary (courts) that applies it.
🗳️ Elections — Chosen by the People
Sovereignty rests with the people, who choose their representatives through elections. Here are the main types — presidential, National Assembly, local elections, and national referendums.
