In 1884 The Kingdoms of [[Kingdom of Seketan|Seketan]] and Alquiya united to form the [[Nelbec Empire]], though the two kingdoms had been in a personal union since 1789.

History
The origins of legislative authority in Alquiya can trace their roots back to royal councils formed by the King of Alquiya, starting in the early 10th century. Like many medieval councils, this body was not a permanent legislature but rather the monarch's court, with barons and dukes from across the kingdom coming together to advise the royal house on matters. Ultimate political authority still rested with the monarch, and membership in the royal council was fluid. This system of royal courts persisted until the early-19th century when King Aljodof II proclaimed the creation of a Parliament after a wave due to the ongoing rise of liberalism parliamentarians sweeping across Europe and the Nelborne Islands. The Kingdom of Alquiya was one of the last Nelbec states to adopt a formal legislative branch in their government, with New Svealand (1725), Trjebia (1764), and Seketan (1799) all establishing theirs long before Alquiya. In 1884 The Kingdoms of Seketan and Alquiya united to form the Nelbec Empire, though the two kingdoms had been in a personal union since 1789. Both Kingdom's legislatures continued to exist for their respective country, with an imperial Grand Council acting as a supreme council.
By 1918 the Empire had collapsed under the weight of WWI and nationalist movements in its constituent countries. The constituent kingdom of Alquiya declared its independence on 13 June 1919 as a republic, though this stint with democracy would be short-lived. A military coup would take over the government in 1929, replacing the young republic's legislature with the Alquiyan All-Military Organization, a military junta that would govern the country until 1983. After the popular overthrow of military rule, the new consitution established the current National Assembly as the legislative branch of the Alquiyan government
