Comparison of U.S. and China Constitutions.

While comparing the United States Constitution and the Constitution of the People's Republic of China, it is easy to see differences and similarities. The primary difference in the two constitutions (as far as format and layout are concerned), besides length, is the number of amendments or articles held in each constitution. The United States has added twenty-seven somewhat open-to-interpretation amendments, which is quite meager compared to China's clean-cut and very specific one hundred thirty-eight amendments. …

…States of America differ greatly in their economic attitudes, policies, and principles, they do have many similarities. Both countries share the same core beliefs about inalienable human rights and freedoms. Both countries see equality, whether it be between genders or races, as very important. The governmental structures of these nations are very different, but perhaps that is insignificant, and instead, what is important is that our basic beliefs about freedom and equality are the same.
