The '''Síðari''' is the national governing body of [[Pharexia]]. It is often informally referred to as the '''Pharexian Legislature''' or the '''Pharexian House of Delegates'''. The unicameral parliament has 500 members, and is elected every five years based on {{wpl|party-list proportional representation}}. Pharexia is split into 10 {{wpl|constituencies}} that each elects 50 members. Additionally, each party with more than 3% of the national vote is allocated seats based on its proportion of the national vote. The Síðari is said to be one of the most representative bodies in [[Veniyerri]].
The '''Rokthing''' (Swedish: ''Rokthingi''; Hverlandic: ''Bergþingi'' ) is the national governing body of [[Hverland]]. It meets in the Björnsson Building located in central Pétursfjord.
 
The Rokthing is unicameral, being composed of a 179-seat assembly. Members are elected via a nationwide {{wp|Party-list proportional representation|party-list proportional system}}. Elections are held every four years, with the last election being held in [[2018 Hverlandic election|2018]].


The Legislature meets regularly between January and September for {{wpl|Legislative session|regular session}}, but a {{wpl|special session}} can be called in order to complete unfinished business or to continue negotiations on the government's budget for the following year. Floor sessions are held in the House of Nobility in Brichard.

The Rokthing (Swedish: Rokthingi; Hverlandic: Bergþingi ) is the national governing body of Hverland. It meets in the Björnsson Building located in central Pétursfjord.

The Rokthing is unicameral, being composed of a 179-seat assembly. Members are elected via a nationwide party-list proportional system. Elections are held every four years, with the last election being held in 2018.

The Rokthing meets regularly between January and September for regular session, but a special session can be called in order to complete unfinished business or to continue negotiations on the government's budget for the following year.

There are currently six parties plus two independents represented in the Rokthing.
