Parliament of the Republic of Zhenia

The Parliament of the Republic of Zhenia (Zhenian: 진화민국 의회), commonly the Parliament, is the  of Zhenia. Its existence and functions confirmed through the Constitution in 1909, its existence traces back well into the Empire of Zhenia when the first Imperial Parliament was held. The Parliament was reorganized into the Federal Parliament after the abdication of Emperor Saejo, with most of the structures remaining the same since then.

Members of the Sangseowon can serve a maximum of ten four-year terms as long as they are elected from their designated province-level parliamentary district, while the restriction is five four-year terms for representatives of the National Assembly. Parliamentary districts are designated through the cooperation between the federal, central government and the province-level governments in each region, keeping in mind data from the most recent census and the regulations regarding the populational representation of each district. Each province-level administrative area is eligible to send five representatives to the Sangseowon, while the number of National Assembly representatives for each province is assigned in accordance to the parliamentary districts, the number of which ultimately dictated by the population of said province-level area. As of now, the age requirement for National Assembly representatives is 21 and 30 for Sangseowon representatives.
