Care to elaborate on concrete examples on where it struggled? 250 years is quite impressive even if you don't believe it or not because only a handful of countries in the whole world has an older constitution.

There was a civil war, that killed millions, it was fought over slavery.

250 years is commendable, but it wasn't without problems.

'stable' as we understand it is relatively modern.
