The Wyth Etholaeth is formed from six hereditary positions, two of whom are [[Ronland|Ronnish]] {{wp|Mormaer|mormaers}} with the remaining four being [[Lluthia|Lluthian]] {{wp|Earl|earls}}, one elected position, the [[Jarl of Liliddinas]], and the head of the [[Lluthian Church]]. Although the Wyth Etholaeth has the power to veto legislation, the last time it did this was in 1883. Instead of being a legislative chamber, the Wyth Etholeath mostly concerns itself in the affairs of the Monarchy leaving the [[Senedd]] as the ''de facto'' {{wp|unicameral}} chamber of the [[Cynulliad y Rhyddfreinwyr]]. The most important objective of the Wyth Etholaeth is the election of a new royal family once the preceding one has reigned for a total of 3 kings' lifespans.
The Wyth Etholeath is older than any modern-day [[Lluthia|Lluthian]] institution. While the [[Senedd]] and the Monarchy derive their power from the people and God respectively, the Wyth Etholaeth derives its power from time immemorial meaning that it exists and will exist because it has existed. The first Lluthian records of the Wyth Etholaeth make remarks to the powers it already had. Some of the oldest records mentioning the Wyth Etholaeth are [[Setentrian Empire|Setentrian]] and [[Hallania|Hallanic]] accounts depicting a group of eight druids or chieftains choosing a successor to the throne. Most historians believe the Wyth Etholeath is around 2300 years old however, the Wyth Etholeath itself only began recording its proceedings in the mid 400s.
