Similarities:
Differences:
The 1898 Constitution established a unicameral legislative body, while the 1935
Constitution established a bicameral Congress.
The powers of the President and the organization of the executive branch differed between
the two constitutions, with the 1935 Constitution providing more detailed provisions and
checks on executive power.
The 1935 Constitution provided more explicit protections for the independence of the
judiciary and the power of judicial review compared to the 1898 Constitution.
I concluded that the 1935 Constitution introduced more detailed provisions and institutional
arrangements for the three branches of government compared to the 1898 Constitution, reflecting
the evolution of the Philippine political system during that period
