The Federal Legislature of Pharexia (Pharexian: Síðari, Astellian: Félagið) is the national governing body of Pharexia. It meets in the Holafsosan Building located in central Breíddalsvík.
The Federal Legislature is bicameral, being composed of the 277-seat National Assembly and the 63-seat Ward Assembly. The houses have identical powers. Members of both houses represent the wards, but, whereas seats in the National Assembly are elected via a nationwide party-list proportional system, each ward seperately elects three members to the Ward Assembly. Both are elected in full once every four years, with the last election being held in 2014.
The Federal Legislature 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. Parties can work together in groups, giving small parties the right to the benefits that come with official party status (given to a party with more than five members of the Great Council). This means that they can get represented on committees, and have full speaking rights in debates, and each group gets an allowance of 79,000 HTN a year.
Between the two bodies, there are currently five parliamentary caucsuses. Caucauses in Pharexia refer to parties that frequently meet or work together to pursue common legislative objectives.
