What is the oldest written source in this country that mentions this right?

Mongolia

Chapter 1, Article 3(i) of the 1924 Constitution of the Mongolian People's Republic states: " With a view to securing for the labouring masses of the people freedom of association, the Mongolian People's Republic affords material and moral assistance to the poorest of the working masses (arats and artisans) for union and organisation."

The right to freedom of association in Mongolia can also be found in the 1940 Constitution of the Mongolian People’s Republic. Article 82 grants citizens the right to “unite in public organizations,” which includes trade unions, cooperative associations, youth organizations, sports and defense organizations, cultural, technical, and scientific societies (Anon 19948. 199). The modren Mongolian state also protects freedom of association in its 1992 Constitution in Article 10 (Mongolia 1992).
