The Parliament of Surrow (Chequan: Apatishumamuitun Utessit, Itchalnu: Nunagijatta maligaliurvigjuangani) is the legislative branch of Surrow, comprising of 66 seats. The current legislature was created in 1950 following Surrow's independence from Rythene, with Parliament being a unicameral legislature. The Parliament of Surrow meets at Parliament House in Holcot Inlet, having done so since 1969.
Distribution
Per the Constitution of Surrow, each Member of Parliament must represent between 3,000 and 3,500 people, although each county and district must be represented by a minimum of one seat.
Since 1969, Parliament can set differing quotients for different countries below a certain population threshold in order to guarantee that the interests of Surrow outside of Southland County (and Holcot Inlet in particular) can be represented more effectively.
