In June 1961, upon achieving independence and in the face of the Iraqi threat, the Amir announced he would establish a Constitution. In July Kuwait was admitted to the Arab League, which sent troops to replace the outgoing British presence. In December, elections were held for a Constituent Assembly, which drafted the Constitution. The Amir signed this into law on 11 November 1962. Elections to the first National Assembly followed on 23 Jan 1963, and on 14 May Kuwait was admitted to the UN (previous efforts in 1962 had been vetoed by the USSR). The Iraqi threat receded with Qassim's death in Feb, and on 4 October Iraq formally recognised Kuwait. With 183 Articles arranged in 5 Parts, this covers the State and System of Government; Fundamental Constituents of the Kuwaiti Society; Public Rights and Duties; Powers (general provisions, Head of State, Legislative, Executive, Judicial); and General and Transitional Provisions.

Add to basket12mo, 3 pp. Thirty-six lines. Text clear and complete. Good, on lightly-aged paper. Addressed by Bonaparte, with stamp, red wax seal and postmarks, on reverse of second leaf, to 'Monsieur le Lieutenant-Colonel Lherbette Adt. au comm. de l'artillerie dans la 1re. division militaire | Vincennes'. Were he not leaving for the countr…y, he would have presented in person 'Mr. Colt, citoyen des Etats-Unis, inventeur d'un ingénieux système d'armes à feu à plusieurs coups'. He and his 'cousin Murat [Joachim-Napoléon Murat (1767-1815)]' will be obliged if Colt can be admitted 'aux expériences du [sic] tir des carabines à tige des chapeurs à pied, quand elles auront lieu'. His colleague, 'le capitaine Tamissier, instructeur du tir à Vincennes', can brief him if necessary. It is his 'désir de faire admirer à un honorable et cordial étranger nos perfectionnemens en matière d'armes portatives'. According to one authority (Howze, Cooper and Kornhauser, 2006), Colt was selling his pistols to the nations of Europe around this time, gaining large orders by playing them off against one another at a time of high demand due to strained international relations.
