The Constitution of Armenia was adopted by a nationwide referendum on July 5, 1995. This established Armenia as a democratic, sovereign, and independent unitary republic. Yerevan is defined as the state's capital. Power is vested in its citizens, who exercise it directly through the election of government representatives. Decisions related to changes in constitutional status or to an alteration of borders are subject to a vote of the citizens of Armenia exercised in a referendum. There are 117 articles in the present constitution. On November 27, 2005, a nationwide constitutional referendum was held and passed. The constitution will be amended accordingly.
