The Bundestag of Werania (Weranian: Bundestag der Ostischland; Federal Diet) is the bicameral legislature of the Werania. It consists of an upper house known as the Herrstag (Lord's Chamber) and a lower house known as the Volkstag (People's Chamber) whilst the monarch presides over parliamentary proceedings. It retains parliamentary sovereignty over Werania, officially being the representative of the Weranian people. Members of the Herrstag are referred to as Peers whilst members of the Volkstag are known as the deputies.

The Bundestag took its current form in 1842 following the unification of Werania, being based on the former Reichstag of the Kingdom of Cislania. The Lord's Chamber was initially entirely hereditary or appointed by the monarch of Werania whilst members of the People's Chamber were elected in a first-past-the post system. In 1905 the government introduced proportional representation for the People's Chamber. In 1956 the People's Chamber voting system was changed again to a parallel system with a portion of the seats elected through FPTP and a portion through PR. The Lord's Chamber remained unreformed until 1991 when the government changed the composition of the Chamber to entirely elected.

Currently 245 members of the Volkstag are elected through single member districts and 300 through proportional representation whilst whilst all members of the Herrstag are elected via FPTP and SNTV in multi-member districts with half the members elected every six years to three year terms. The next Volkstag election is expected in 2023; the next Herrstag election is in 2024.
