The April 2010 version of the Constitution, including the first four amendments
An amendment is a change made to a pending motion or bill by a motion to amend, or to a previously adopted law or motion. In Lovia, it is almost exclusively used as a synonym of a constitutional amendment, a change made to a written constitution. Article 7 of the Lovian Constitution defines an amendment as "a motion to amend the Constitution". It requires a special majority of more than two thirds, so at least 66.67% (prior to 2010: 75%).
