My State is a perfect example
The Alabama Constitution is the basic governing document of the U.S. state of Alabama. It was adopted in 1901 and is the sixth constitution that the state has had. At over 310,000 words, the document is 12 times longer than the average state constitution, 40 times longer than the U.S. Constitution, and is the longest constitution anywhere in the world. About 90 percent of the document's length comes from its 743 amendments. About 70 percent of those amendments cover only a single county or city, and some deal with salaries of specific officials.
One consequence of this is, the more lenghty and complicated, the harder it is to fix. They have been talking about constitutional reform in Alabama all my life and nothing ever gets done.
Perhaps the E.U. will take this dubious distinction from Sweet Home.
