==== Property Rights ====
The right to private property was considered by the Aedelant Founding Fathers to be the most critical and is the first to be protected in the Aedelant Constitution. They believed the protection of private property to be the sole purpose of government and that property provides the foundation for individual freedom and economic opportunity, which are vital to prosperity. This right includes the exclusive use of one's possessions, life, and privacy, and directly prohibits searches, arrests, seizures, and certain forms of taxation, punitive fees, and the death penalty.
 
==== Right to Arms ====
The Founding Fathers believed that free people ought to be armed and disciplined to maintain independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, including their own government. According to Founding Father John Gray, "to disarm the people is the best and most effectual way to enslave them."
 
==== Freedom of Religion and Expression ====
The free exercise clause protects the exercise of religion from government intervention, allowing diverse claims of truth to compete, fostering civil debate and respect. The censure clause prevents government interference in the free transfer of ideas and information without limitation.
 
==== Freedom to Roam ====
The freedom to roam clause guarantees access to public lands, a right won through practice over centuries. This right provides for passage across private land but requires respect for private property and forbids permanent dwelling, hunting, fishing, or cultivation without the owner's consent.

The rights of the accused provide several protections against judicial persecution, ensuring fairness and due process. This includes the right to a fair and public trial, protection against double jeopardy, and prohibition of self-incrimination under duress. These rights ensure that once a case is decided by a jury, it cannot be appealed by either the plaintiff or the defendant. However, the right to habeas corpus allows for petitions for release from unlawful detention.
