The House of Representatives was established in 1796, when the Anthold Constitution created foundation of the [[Atmora|Atmoran Confederation]], and was modelled on the [[House of Commons of House of Commons|Lieseltanian House of Commons]]. The lower of the two houses making up the parliament, the House of Representatives in practice holds far more power than the upper house, the Senate. Although the approval of both Houses is necessary for legislation, the Senate very rarely rejects bills passed by the commons (though the Senate does occasionally amend bills). Moreover, the [[Cabinet of Atmora|Cabinet]] is {{wpl|responsible house|responsible}} solely to the House of Representatives. The [[Chancellor of Atmora|chancellor]] stays in office only as long as they retain the support, or "confidence", of the lower house.
