The election system was NOT fixed by the German Basic Law in 1949 as claimed, it was passed as a simple law.

To clarify, the broad framework for elections to the Bundestag (Parliament) was established under Articles 38 and 39 of the Grundgesetz (Constitution) or Basic Law of 1949. The Mixed Member Proportional System was not established by the Basic Law but by The Parliamentary Council in 1949.
