The Popular Assembly votes on [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law laws] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Act_(document) acts] proposed by its members and holds control over prioritizing the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Government_budget national budget]. The House of the Populace vote on proposed actions of the Royal Cabinet if such measures are budgetary. The House of the Nobility votes on actions if they are military or foreign policy related. In return, the laws and acts passed by the Assembly must receive Royal Assent to become legal, though refusal of Royal Assent on a given document can be circumvented by a four-fifths majority vote of both Houses. The House of the Nobility may override a vote made by the House of the Populace with a three-fifths majority and vice versa. Extant in both Houses are Boards that are responsible for areas of government mirroring that of the Royal Ministries, and work together with them on policy. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Committee#Conference_committee Committees] may also be formed by the Mediators of the Houses to investigate and address specific issues.[[File:CorricParliament.svg|thumb|200x200px|2021 House of the Populace makeup|alt=2021 House of the Populace makeup.

The Prime Minister is elected from the House of the Populace, and all First Ministers must have served in either house to qualify for the position. The Assembly also has the power to dismiss any Prime or First Minister with a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unanimity unanimous] vote of no confidence. Similarly, with a unanimous vote of both Houses and the Royal Cabinet, the Monarch may be deposed in favor of another member of the Royal Family.
 
The major [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_party parties] of the Assembly are the Chivalric Caucus (CC,) the Antora Progress Party (APP,) and the Environmental Stewards (ES.) These three parties are broadly liberal-leaning and always form a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coalition_government coalition] together, which is known as the Antoran Liberal Pact. The CLP has controlled the House of the Populace for the past forty years, receiving the majority of seats each election.
