The Parlamenzalochas of the Essian Commonwealth, sometimes referred to informally as the Royal Council or even Parliament of the Commonwealth, was the official advisory body to the Essian Monarchy in the Essian Commonwealth. The Parlamenzalochas was given few political powers and duties, however was still considered the micronation's legislature, at least to some degree. The Parlamenzalochas was entirely appointed by the Monarch, and its powers and duties were defined by decree established by different monarchs.

In the Parlamenzalochas, each County was assigned a Warden to administer and represent the County in the Parlamenzalochas of the Essian Commonwealth. None of these offices required election, however Monarchs reserved the right to delegate the power of the appointment in the form of an election. Under this rule, all Parliassames served at the pleasure of the Monarch, and could as such be removed by the Monarch at any time.

Powers and duties

The Parlamenzalochas was considered the second most powerful body in the Essian Commonwealth, behind only the Essian Monarchy. Its authority was generally accepted through precedent of the Constitution, and all other powers and duties were individually allotted by royal decree from the Monarch of the Essian Commonwealth.
