History
The Majilis-Ash-Shura was established as a bi-cameral legislature in 1923 with a house to represent the nobles and a house to represent the commoners (similar to today). In 1930, the house representing the commoners was abolished however in 2020 it was re-established due to the bravery of commoners in the Allied Tribe War.
