Senate (Livonia)

The Livonian Senate (German: Livländischer Senat) is the unicameral legislature of Livonia. Although its official purposes are similar to legislatures in democracies, it has little but ceremonial functions in practice as laws are drafted by the ruling military dictatorship and passed generally without opposition due to the sustained control of right-wing German parties.
The Senate is nominally elected with universal male suffrage with the minimum age being 25. However, many voters are disenfranchised due to accused associations with illegal organizations. Seats are assigned through a party-list proportional representation system, however this is done through two ethnic lists, divided between Germans and Balts, with each list electing 175 seats for a total of 350.
