Constitution of Chatten and Leucen |
The House of Baronies (Leucish: Housse uft Baronys) is the upper house of the Chalcish Parliament, the bicameral legislature of Chatten and Leucen. The House is composed of 76 representatives, 3 out of each federal state, except for Lomercoyne which has an additional representative. One of the oldest institutions in the world, it was established in the 12th century in the wake of the War of the Barons against Calwyth. It is the first chamber of the Parliament before the inauguration of the Assembly of Commons in 1815.
