Folke Senatet: Difference between revisions

The '''Folke Senatet''' (or '''People's Senate''') is the unicameral legislature of [[Visnetorpe]]. De jure, it acts as the sole legislative body in the country, though regularly shares power with the Privy Council for Visnetorpe, which possess the ability to exert the monarch's right to pass through legislature with considerable impetus - though the Senatet theoretically holds the constitutional right to later vote to annul any piece of legislature passed by the Privy Council through the same 3/5 majority of other bills. The body was founded following negotiations between [[Gamlevinland]] and the National Reconciliation Committee (NRC) - an emergency government formed from a splinter group of the Vinlander Parliament in Visnetorpe who supported compromise with the Monarchists to maintain the survival of democracy. As such, the Senate formed primarily from the practices of the Vinlander Parliament (which were continued by the NRC) and the regional government of the City of Visnetorpe, being the rentowner elected Municipal Corporation.
