To Create a Legislature for Flaventia


1. A legislature with four chambers is established to create Laws for the Dynastic Incarnation of the Lands of Flaventia: the Guardian Council, the Kuhrat, the Congress of the Lands, and the People's Assembly.
2. The Guardian Council, previously established by Faronic Mandate, is incorporated into the Legislature of the Dynastic Incarnation as the first chamber. It is composed of the Dukes of Haven, Hazelwood, the Punkrock Isles, Robland, the raja of Tas Neemia, the Dukes of Vonzek, and Valentina, and the the lord lieutenant of Alrodey. The number of the Guardian Council is set at Eight. The Raja shall serve as Presiding Officer of the Guardian Council. The members shall serve for as long as they hold their titles. The Guardian Council meets in Serribaugh Palace in Tassity.
3. The Kuhrat is established as the second chamber of the Legislature. It is composed of Sixteen Flaventian bosarchs appointed to serve on this council by the Metrobosarch of Lindstrom. The King of Ziegeland shall serve as Chairman of the Kuhrat. The members shall serve at the pleasure of the Metrobosarch. The Kuhrat may only be called into session and adjourned by the Chairman of the Kuhrat. The Kuhrat meets in Haas House in Anmutstadt.
4. The Congress of the Lands is established as the third chamber of the Legislature. It is composed of Eleven senators elected from at-large districts from each of the four Lands of the Dynastic Incarnation, totaling Forty-four. A President of the Congress of the Lands will be elected from among the senators. The Prince of Sororiya may only vote to break ties. The senators shall serve 4 year terms. The Congress meets in the Old Capitol in Bagelston.
5. The People's Assembly is established as the fourth chamber of the Legislature. It is composed of Four hundred and Forty-four representatives elected from constituencies of equal population drawn with compact borders. Constituencies are to be redrawn every 12 years. A Speaker of the People's Assembly will be elected from among the representatives. The Lord Lieutenant of Alrodey may vote to break ties. The representatives shall serve 2 year terms. The People's Assembly meets in Ashington.
6. Only the People's Assembly and the Congress of the Lands may originate bills to become Law. Once a bill has been passed by both the People's Assembly and the Congress of the Lands, only then is it sent to the Kuhrat for review.
7. The Kuhrat may reject bills sent to it by the Assembly and Congress. It must make all decisions unanimously, and may only reject bills on the grounds that it would violate the core of the Bovic faith. The Kuhrat must submit a treatise on why it has rejected the bill, citing the Tetrabiblios or other Bovic writings. If the Kuhrat is not in session, then the bill is automatically sent to the Guardian Council.
8. The Guardian Council must approve by a simple majority all bills sent to it by the Kuhrat before the bill become a Law of the Dynastic Incarnation.
9. Each chamber may establish its own rules and procedure, verify the elections or appointments of its own members, and censure its own members. The Assembly and Congress may expel its own members.
10. Laws passed by the Legislature shall have the full and co-equal force of law that Faronic Mandates enjoy.
11. The Legislature shall keep a public code of all laws in force in the Dynastic Lands.


Let my mandate be heard throughout the Inner, Outer, Sister, and Protected Lands and obeyed by all dukes, nawabs, students, and citizens; by residents, denizens, and subjects; and by all those possessing their own conscious minds, or otherwise, and existing within these Demesnes and therefore subject to these decrees; and further let it be heard in far and distant lands beyond my current grasp as proof of the good governance enjoyed by Flaventians so that they may flock here and prosper

By my hand,

His Dynastic Highness,

NATHAN II

I've amended this to remove the Prince of Sororiya and the Lord Lieutenant of Alrodey as presiding officers of their respective chambers. Those officers will now be elected.
