Federal Parliament

The Federal Parliament or simply Parliament is the tricameral legislature of the Terran Federal Republic. It is comprised of the Senate, the Assembly of the People and the Host of Representatives.
The Senate serves as the upper chamber and is exclusively made of randomly chosen technocrats, whilst the Assembly acts as a lower chamber, elected through proportional national elections. These two chambers wield all the legislative power, whilst the Host of Representatives, with one representative per Terran commonwealth and several others representing other interests groups, in particular corporations, is purely consultative. As such, despite technically being a tricameral legislature, the Terran legislature is often considered to be in effect bicameral.
