From Wikipedia:


Some constitutions use entrenched clauses to restrict the kind of amendment to which they may be subject. This is usually to protect characteristics of the state considered sacrosanct, such as the democratic form of government or the protection of fundamental human rights. Amendments are often totally forbidden during a state of emergency or martial law.

Under Article 79 of Chapter 7 of the German basic Law, modification of the federal nature of the country or abolition of Article 1 [Human dignity] or 20 [Basic Principles of State] is forbidden.
