Efforts to centralize and increase the powers of the Daoni had considerable legal hurdles. Although the authority of the Apostolic King increased in the realms he ruled, those realms - be they the core parts of the Urcean Kingdom itself or the duchies of modern [[Gassavelia]], [[Canaery]], or [[Ænglasmarch]] - had differing internal structures, and the Daoni's authority extended only to those lands considered Royal. The lands of the [[Duchy of Transurciana]] also enjoyed significant autonomy and protection from Royal laws. These jurisdictional issues prevented the Daoni from asserting itself in a meaningful way until the aftermath of the [['75 Rising]]. That rebellion in Gassavelia lead many in [[Urceopolis (City)|Urceopolis]] to reevaluate the governance of the peripheral territories, leading to the adoption of the Jurisdiction Decree in 1685, which incorporated all of the King's possessions into the Daoni and began the process of legal reform in Urcea that would not be complete until the [[Administrative Reform Act of 1892]]. Despite these momentous changes, the Daoni remained primarily a body that approved tax changes and served in an advisory capacity until the [[Concession of 1747]], which greatly empowered the body and expanded its responsibilities. After 1747, the Daoni began to assert itself as the national legislature, and the development of the [[Constitution of Urcea]] throughout the 18th and 19th century cemented its status as such by 1845, which is considered to be the date in which the modern history of the Daoni begins. During this time, the role of the [[Procurator]] - officially the President of the Common Council - was greatly reduced. The ability of the Procurator to break ties was removed in [[1856]] in order to ensure the independence of the legislature, making Urcea's legislature one of the few worldwide without an individual officer who can break ties in the body. After meeting in various locations and spaces throughout the [[Julian Palace]], the current home of the Daoni - [[Julian_Palace#National_Hall|National Hall]] in the Palace - was constructed in the 1860s. The move to National Hall represents the last major change to the body. | Efforts to centralize and increase the powers of the Daoni had considerable legal hurdles.
