The legislative branch of the government is quadricameral. The original body is the five hundred strong People's Assembly. It is [[Daxia]]'s primary source of legislation. The People's Assembly has no budgetary powers of its own and depends on the Ministry of Finance for its funding. The second chamber is the Chamber of Productive Sectors, it was created by Chancellor [[Linge Chen]] to include labor unions, professionist associations and worker and peasant cooperative associations in the tasks of governance. The third chamber is the Delegated Committee that is made up of six hundred representatives of the [[Party of Daxian Democrats]], one from every electoral district plus a hundred specially appointed party delegates. The Delegated Committee does legislate but has the power to revise bills and return them to the People's Assembly for review. The fourth chamber is the Council of Applied Sciences. The Council was created during the tenure of the current Chancellor to make sure that all legislation follows generally accepted scientific principles and is of sound logical structure. | The legislative branch of the government is quadricameral.

===Autonomies Magistracy=== | ===Autonomies Magistracy=== | ||
The Autonomies Magistracy exists to extend the implementation of [[Daxia]]n Basic Law to the Autonomies. There are currently two existing designated Autonomies, the [[Chimoche|Chimor Autonomy]] and the [[Ixa'Taka|Ixa'Taka Autonomy]] and each of them has its own separate Autonomies Magistracy.

Cases tried by the Autonomies Magistracy cannot be attracted by the Supreme Magistracy, instead plaintiffs dissatisfied with their court rulings have the option to appeal to the ruler of the Autonomy for redress. In the [[Chimoche|Chimor Autonomy]]'s case that is the current King, Falcao IX. In the case of the [[Ixa'Taka|Ixa'Taka Autonomy]] they can appeal to Brotherly Guide Gurban Mamedow. The process of these appeals varies by Autonomy and is subject to change depending on the number of appeals received. | The Autonomies Magistracy exists to extend the implementation of [[Daxia]]n Basic Law to the Autonomies.

Autonomies are relatively new administrative creations, they were only created by the introduction of the 2015 Law on Autonomies. That law recognizes the existence of a minoritarian group and enshrines their right to have a degree of self rule on areas where said group constitutes an absolute majority. This was created to address problems of governance stemming from the realities of ruling large alien populations. There are currently only two existing designated Autonomies, the [[Chimoche|Chimor Autonomy]] and the [[Ixa'Taka|Ixa'Taka Autonomy]], homeland of the Chimor and Ixa'Taka ethnic groups respectively. The areas covering these two autonomies were originally subdivided into regular districts. The 2015 Law on Autonomies provided for the carrying out of special census to ascertain the specific ethnic demographics of districts with high numbers of Chimor and Ixa'Takan inhabitants and authorized their merging together to form the Autonomies. People in these special administrative zones do not possess [[Daxia]]n citizenship, only a form of citizenship 'light'. They have a reduced tax burden, may not vote in elections outside the Autonomies, are exempt from military service outside [[Crona]], may not intermarry outside their group, etc. The Autonomies have their own semi-sovereign governments and are allowed various traditional trappings of statehood such as its own flag and symbols, control of its budget and within certain constraints; police forces and a defence force of its own. Autonomies have minimal budgets allocated by the Ministry of Finance, instead they have control of their own natural resources and discretionary powers to gather revenue from them in addition to separate taxation systems. | Autonomies are relatively new administrative creations, they were only created by the introduction of the 2015 Law on Autonomies.
