abstract
  • Originally established by the Constitution of Sierra, the Parliament was originally composed of a Senate with 46 members (excluding the Prime Minister) and a House with 250 members. Following the promulgation of the 1950 Charter for the Kingdom of Sierra, 28 more seats were added to the Senate and 14 more seats in the House to accommodate the newly established constituent countries of the Deseret and Hawaii's combined set of 14 administrative subdivisions. Although Sierra became a constituent country as well, it retained the Parliament of Sierra as its "national" parliament, while the Deseret and Hawaii were allowed their own national legislatures in addition to the Parliament. Consequently, Sierra has no devolved legislature comprised solely of its own citizens. While Sierra's federal system of government and its Constitution does not apply to the Deseret or Hawaii, the rules and regulations that control the Parliament remain embedded within the Sierran constitution, with few additional provisions by the Charter. Consequently, the Sierran Constitution's provisions regarding representational allocation apply to the Deseret and Hawaii. In both houses, senators and commoners are elected to represent a single constituency at-large (a province, state, or region in the case of senators or a parliamentary district in the case of commoners). Each recognized administrative second-level territory from the Deseret, Hawaii, or Sierra have two senators, regardless of size or population. Parliamentary districts are apportioned to the Deseret regions, Hawaiian states, and Sierran provinces by population using the Sierra Royal Bureau of Census' report, provided that each is represented by at least one commoner. Each senator serves a term of 6 years, with elections staggered, ensuring about a third of the Senate facing elections every two years. In the House, its members are elected to a term of 2 years.
