It abolished the office of Prime Minister and concentrated all executive authority in the President. It also secured various rights and freedoms including freedom of speech, right to life, protections against double jeopardy, and the right to vote (except for women). The reforms were very popular. They are said to have established the modern Prusian state and Kahar Soslat is remembered highly as a result. He was elected the first President of Pruse, receiving 64% of the vote, a majority no candidate has matched since.
