Hlenderia: Difference between revisions

Line 151:
===Legislature===
 
The Grand Council of Hlenderia is elected at-large every five years, or earlier if the legislature is dissolved or votes to hold an early election. The King is given the power to suspend and dissolve the Council, but must call a new election within two months. The Council elects a President from among its members, whose position is analogous to that of a Prime Minister or Chancellor in other nations. The current President is [[Marsilamat Indari]], an ethnic VrotriKwari. The President works closely with the King to set public policy and enact legislature.
 
The Grand Council has 187 seats. Of these, 144 are [[Wikipedia:reserved political positions|reserved seats]] divided between the Kwari, Vrotri, and Mūni people according to proportion of population. This arrangement, present since Hlenderia's founding, can cause census years to be times of heightened ethnic tensions. The census, which occurs every eight years, last occured in 2018 and is scheduled to occur again in 2026.
