The Wegmat Parliament or the Prime Ministry is the legislure of the Federal Union of Wegmat. The Prime Ministry was established in the April 4 Acts to vote on legislations for Wegmat.

History

See also: April 4 Acts

Wegmat as the Kingdom of Ridab was an Absolute monarchy and had almost no democracy. The April 4 Acts established the Prime Ministry. Wegmat parliament was made up of two executive seats and three standard seats. The two executives were the Prime Minister and Speaker of Parliament. There was only one legitimate election to this model of government. During the covid pandemic no election was held as the current consitution had elections yearly. After the 2020 Weg Constitutional Convention a new parliament was created. The parliament would have 7 equal seats and had the power to nominate a prime minister.

Structure

Constitutinally, the parliament has no leader which is why one of the first laws passed by the new parliament was to establish the Chair of Parliament. The Chair is meant to be the chief of the governing party in Wegmat but has historically it has been Prime Minister Cole Baird. The Chair keeps order in parliament by being the leader of each session.

Parliament is not representative of any constituent or region and each seat represents all Weg people. Every weg citizen votes for seven candidates. The seven candidates with the popular vote are elected into parliament. In the case of a tie, a runoff election occurs.
