Second National Assembly at Astros

Its most important task was the revision of the Constitution of Epidaurus, adopted in the First National Assembly.

The new Constitution was voted on April 13 and was called the Epidaurus Law to stress its continuity with the one of 1822.

The new Constitution also marked improvements as far as the protection of human rights was concerned: property was protected, as was the honor and the security not only of Greeks but of all persons on Greek territory; it established the freedom of the press and abolished slavery.

[2] President of the Executive (government) was elected Petros Mavromichalis, of the Legislative (parliament) Ioannis Orlandos, while the delegates agreed also to seek financial aid and loan, mainly from the United Kingdom.

However, the great disadvantage of the yearly term of the Administrative branches remained unaltered, a result of the ever-growing distrust between politicians and the military.
