Answer:

I researched the constitution of the State of California. I learned it is 130 years old and is one of the longest constitutions in the world. California gained statehood and needed a constitution after the US acquired the area from Mexico in 1848. The original state constitution has been revised several times.

The current version has Articles, just as the US Constitution does. Each article contains specific information on particular subject matter areas. Article 1 is a Declaration of Rights.

Three areas the constitution covers are -

Marine resources protection (Article XB) - California has a coastline that is over 800 miles long. This means many people live near the sea and many may make their living in fishing or other ocean related industries. Protecting the marine resources is essential to the livelihood of all citizens of the state.

Motor vehicle emissions (Article XIX) - California has strict regulations to protect the air. Clean air is essential to everyone because everyone must breathe air.

Medical research (Article XXXV) - California has an Institute for Regenerative Medicine. It researches therapies and cures for major diseases. This helps citizens because public health creates a healthy population. A healthy population is a more productive population.
