The Union Assembly is the bicameral legislature of the Seredinian Union. It was formed via the 1878 Constitution, replacing the disparate and disconnected local assemblies across the region which had formed the confederate government for the previous eight years. It is the strongest governmental institution in Seredinia.

The powers of the Assembly are detailed in the aforementioned 1878 constitution, as well as the so-called January Constitution and the 1912 Union Constitution -- both actually being compiled amendments to the original 1878 document. The Assembly comprises two bodies; the Federal Council, which has 200 members, and the State Duma, which has at least 500 members and currently has 602. The Council is elected indirectly by the twenty-eight Federal Subjects, with representatives distributed by population. The Duma is elected via mixed-member proportional representation, with 250 single-member districts and a nationwide open party list which allows for numerous extra deputies through overhang and adjustment seats.

Councillors meet in the Palace of Unity in Zolodolina. While the Premier officially leads and sets the agenda of the State Duma, a President of that body as well as the Federal Council maintain moderating powers.
