The Political Constitution of the Empire of Brazil, commonly referred to as the Constitution of 1824, was Brazil's first constitution and remained in force for 65 years. It was issued at the emperor's request, unilaterally imposed by the will of emperor Pedro I, who had ordered it from the Council of State. It was the longest-running constitution in Brazil that remained in power during the Empire of Brazil. The constitution's innovations included freedom of religious worship, freedom of the press and opinion, and the institution of the Moderating Power.

The Empire of Brazil was a 19th-century state that broadly comprised the territories which form modern Brazil and (until 1828) Uruguay. Its government was a representative parliamentary constitutional monarchy under the rule of Emperors Dom Pedro I and his son Dom Pedro II. A colony of the Kingdom of Portugal, Brazil became the seat of the Portuguese colonial Empire in 1808, when the Portuguese Prince regent, later King Dom João VI, fled from Napoleon's invasion of Portugal and established himself and his government in the Brazilian city of Rio de Janeiro. João VI later returned to Portugal, leaving his eldest son and heir, Pedro, to rule the Kingdom of Brazil as regent. On 7 September 1822, Pedro declared the independence of Brazil and, after waging a successful war against his father's kingdom, was acclaimed on 12 October as Pedro I, the first Emperor of Brazil. The new country was huge but sparsely populated and ethnically diverse.
