When [[Saidun the Conqueror]] defeated Uden II and abolished the [[Zubraynite dynasty]], he promised the [[Nobility of Packilvania|nobles of Packilvania]] that he would establish a Council whereby they could live in Bingol and advise him on the running of the country. In 1680, he created ''luMijhalis luBas'' which was a unicameral body. In the late 19th century, the body was referred to as the Parliament by the Staynish-language press. In the reign of Ishak V, there was a revolt by the merchant class and the educated elite to have official representation of their own. Thus, the Parliament was divided into two bodies, the Legislative Council which consisted of the aristocracy and the Consultative Assembly which was elected by the tax-paying and land-owning class. [[Gideon Muktan]] was elected to the Parliament.
