Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow. 

The constitution is the fundamental principles or established rules that constitute the legal basis of a political party, organization or other type of entity and commonly determines how that entity is to be governed. When these principles are written down into a single document or set of legal documents, those documents may be said to embody a written constitution. 

Constitutions concern different levels of organizations, from sovereign countries to companies and associations. A treaty that establishes an international organization is also its constitution, in that it defines how that organization is constituted. Within states, a constitution defines the principles upon which the state is based, the procedure in which laws are made and by whom. Some constitutions, also act as limiters of state power, by establishing lines which a state's rulers cannot cross, such as fundamental human rights. 

The Kenyan constitution acts as a safeguard against human rights violation. The human rights contained in the constitution is the right to life, freedom of speech, association and religion, right to own land or business and several more. Without the constitution, there would be disorder and chaos. Without the constitution everyone would do as they please without regard to others. People wouldn't care whom they hurt and this world would be impossible to live in.
