The Royal Assembly, officialy the Royal Assembly of the Kingdom of Albeinland, is the unicameral national legislature of Albeinland. The current parliamentary system was estabilished months after the Albish Revolution in 1665, when its role within the Albish Government was assigned by the Common Charter despite having a series of legislative institutions and courts being estabilished in the Middle Ages. The Royal Assembly meets in the Orwell House on the Luffton ward in Castelby.
The Royal Assembly is responsible for approving laws and supervises the work of the Chancellor and its Cabinet, adopt the national budget and approve the state costs. The Albish monarch still holds a considerable amount of power and strives in several parliamentary occasions such as the opening of the annual activities in the State Opening of the Parliament.
The Royal Assembly comprises of 160 Assembly Members (AMs), all of them elected in a party-list proportional representation voting system. Both the Chancellor and its Cabinet should be Assembly Members. There isn't any estabilished term of office, with the members staying at Her Majesty's pleasure. The most recent election was held on 12 November 2018 with a conservative and nationalist coalition victory.
