African Parliament (Africa Rising)

The African Parliament, also called the Pan-African Parliament (PAP), is the legislative body of the African Union (AU). Originally it was largely symbolic after being established in 2004, but in the 2050s the Parliament was given a greater role in political affairs. The aftermath of the Zaire War led to many African nations agreeing to give the AU more power to prevent conflict. As of 2100, the parliament had 1,095 seats.
==Seat allocation==
Seats in the African Parliament are divided up among the 35 member states of the African Union, proportionally based on population estimates. Elections are carried out differently by country, some are a single constituency where seats are allocated by proportional representation, while others are divided into electoral districts.
