Constitutional Charter of Serbia and Montenegro

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Constitutional Charter of the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro (Serbian: Уставна повеља Србије и Црне Горе, Ustavna povelja Srbije i Crne Gore) came into force on 4 February 2003, and united Serbia and Montenegro under one government, replacing the earlier Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.

This was the third time in history such a union had been attempted. Article 60 of the constitution required that a minimum of three years pass after its ratification before one of the member states could declare independence, as indeed happened when Montenegro voted to approve an independence referendum in 2006.
