The Constitution of Norway was signed at Eidsvoll on 17 May 1814. It is the second oldest written Constitution in the World still in existence. The constitution declared Norway to be an independent kingdom in an attempt to avoid being ceded to Sweden after Denmark–Norway's devastating defeat in the Napoleonic Wars. This established a Union between Sweden and Norway.
