Charlotte (Charlotte Adelgonde Élise/Elisabeth Marie Wilhelmine; 1896–1985) reigned as Grand Duchess of Luxembourg from 1919 to 1964.
In a referendum about the new constitution on 28 September 1919, 77.8 % of the Luxembourgish people voted for the continuation of a Grand Ducal monarchy with Charlotte as head of state. In this constitution, the power of the monarch was severely restricted.
