of the president and prime minister.

The most recent major amendments to the Constitution was for the Charter of Lebanese National Reconciliation (Ta'if Accord), in October 1989 that was signed into law on the 21st September 1990. This brought an end to the Lebanese Civil War that began in 1975. The Ta'if Accord introduced multiple changes to the constitution, including shifting the ratio of religious representation from a 6:5 Christian majority to 1:1 and a reduction in the powers of the president.
