The world's first constitution
Birth Story of the world's first state with a democratic form of government and its constitution began in Zaporizhzhya Sich. For millennia, Europe, as well as all the nations of the world, consisted of feudal states, which were headed by a loving princes, kings, kings and other brethren, who originally received as a legacy of power - that is power, as a family private property, passed down from father to his son. This state of affairs suited the ruling elite and in no way corresponded to the social, economic, spiritual and political interests of the peoples of these countries.
In the just formed Cossack republic had no feudal land ownership, no serfdom. Economic relations between people based on the principle of employment, not the feudal coercion. For the first time in the history of mankind is the Ukrainian people, in spite of all existing at the time dictatorships, has created a new state with a democratic form of government.
From the point of view of the history and development of a democratic society, the more important it was created by Philip Orlik adoption of the first constitution of Ukraine, which took place on the day of his election, the hetman of Ukraine - April 5, 1710.

revolutionary application – Droid Translator. Easy-to-use service simultaneously
translates voice calls, as well as messages in the app and calls via the usual

install the software to their mobile devices and speak as usual, each in one’s
own language.
One of the one of the most important advantages of Droid Translator – synchronization
of the existing Skype contacts. The user doesn’t have to register a new account
in order to use the app. During the conversation a stenograph is recorded for
the convenience of the users.
In the nearest future, the app will
also work with Google Talk and Viber, allowing recording and saving stenographs
of calls and multilingual conference calls. The list of supported languages can
be found on the app’s page.
Today the
beta-version of Droid Translator is available. In the near future users
will be able to download the full version of the app for 5 US dollars.

video-calls translation, you have to additionally buy a USB Droid Translation

costs only 15,12$ with worldwide delivery included. Pre-orders can be made at
the web-page of the developer, with delivery worldwide.
The main idea and motto of the project: Speak your language with the world!
The author of the idea and the CEO of
the Droid Translator project is Alexandr Konovalov. The project is realized on
the base of the Czech innovative company «Technology Improves the World» (TIW).
