The '''Národná Rada Holynska''' (National Council of Holynia) is the bicameral legislature of [[Holynia]], a unitary constitutional monarchy. Power is centralized but devolved through the constitution and legislation to regional governments, creating a framework for local governance without forming a federation. The King of Holynia serves as the ceremonial head of state, while the Prime Minister and Cabinet exercise executive powers. However, all legislation requires Royal Assent to become law, underscoring the monarch’s constitutional role in Holynian governance. | |||
The current structure of the Národná Rada was established in 2001, following Holynia’s transition from communism to a parliamentary democracy. It consists of two houses: the Council of Representatives, which is directly elected, and the Council of Regions, which represents the interests of Holynia's 20 administrative regions. | |||

=== Council of Regions === | |||
The Council of Regions is the upper house of parliament and is composed of 100 members, with each of Holynia’s 20 regions electing five representatives. Members are selected indirectly by regional assemblies, reflecting the principle of equal regional representation, regardless of population. | |||
=== Council of Representatives === | |||
The Council of Representatives is the lower house of the Národná Rada and consists of 600 seats. Members are elected every five years through a mixed electoral system that combines at-large constituencies with party lists and proportional representation.

Council of Regions Review: The Council of Regions reviews bills passed by the lower house, offering amendments or recommendations to reflect regional interests. | |||
