Constitution of 5 September 1950 - 12.5 piastre

This stamp commemorates the Constitution of 5 September 1950, one of the most significant political milestones in the early history of independent Syria. Following a period of political instability after independence, the adoption of the 1950 Constitution established the legal and institutional framework of the Syrian Republic. It defined the principles of government, the powers of state institutions, the role of parliament, and the rights and duties of citizens, helping to strengthen constitutional rule and democratic governance.

The Constitution of 1950 represented a major effort to build a modern and sovereign state based on representative institutions and the rule of law. It reflected the aspirations of Syria's political leaders and citizens to create a stable constitutional order after years of foreign rule and political transition. By commemorating this event, the stamp celebrates an important chapter in Syria's democratic development and its commitment to establishing a constitutional republic founded on national sovereignty and parliamentary government
