The '''Congress of Mava''' (Mavean: ''Mava Repalik Matinitanni''; Almagrian: ''Congreso de la República de Mava''; commonly abbreviated as "MRM") is the parliament of the [[Mava|Republic of Mava]]. A unicameral legislature, its 51 members are elected every five years by first-past-the-post to represent single-member constituencies.
The '''Assembly of the Republic of Mava''' (Mavean: ''Áwnuhiu’akak á’at Naigál'yaké 'a Máva'') is the democratically-elected legislature of [[Mava]]. Located in Pa'as, it comprises 45 members known as "Assemblymen/Assemblywomen" (Mavean: ''Áwnuhiu’akak'ag/Áwnuhiu’akak'ig''), who are elected to represent individual geographical constituencies by the plurality system. In accordance with the Constitution, all executive and legislative power is vested in the Assembly as the supreme representation of the Mavean people. The most recent election to the Assembly was held on 11 May 2023, with the Progressive Party of the Mavean Islands winning an outright majority.


The Assembly is a unicameral body responsible for creating and amending all laws in Mava. It was founded in 1925 through the interim Mavean Independence Act and was permanently established in the 1925 Mavean Constitution. Between 1925 and 1994, the Assembly was de facto bicameral, with a "Grand Committee of the Assembly" acting as a technocratic review body within the assembly. The committee was abolished by the Assembly Act (Members and Voting) Act 1993.
The Congress was established on independence in 1970, succeeding the Transitional Congress that Atitlanese colonial authorities established in 1965 to prepare for independence. Congress is presided over by the Speaker (Taama Iativut since 20 July 2020), who is elected by deputies from amongst their number. Congress meets at the Palasi Matinitanni in Taalan, previously the residence of the Governor of Mava. The last election was held on 9 July 2020, with deputies meeting for the first time on 20 July 2020.
