%X This paper explores and illustrates the multifaceted engagements and deliberations that took 
place within the political scenery of the Colombian Constitution of 1853, in order to identify 
the involved agreements which favored for its construction and consolidation. Primary and 
secondary sources are used, trying to demonstrate three central assumptions: (I) in the territorial 
order: the Constitution of 1853 represents the beginning of solidification of a federal system in 
Colombia, seeking to unify, to grant the independence, and to give a political strength to the 
provinces of the period, (ii) at the institutional level, it intended to consolidate the State paying 
special attention to the popular will, while limiting the authority to the president to assume 
other powers; and finally (iii) the Constitution provided guarantees of civil liberties, such as 
freedom of press, universal suffrage, and freedom of religion
