{{Main|History of the Constitution of Urcea}}
The Concilium Daoni was formally created in 1146 as an advisory body of the [[Great Landsmeet]], an institution which descended from the tribal assembly of [[Great Levantia]]. Made up of [[Social class in Urcea|privilegiata and freemen]], the body was intended to serve as a method for deadlocked disputes between the [[Apostolic King of Urcea]] and the Landsmeet to be resolved. The Daoni, made up of delegates rather than high nobles themselves, was much more flexible and could meet on a more regular basis. It was given all the legal force of the Great Landsmeet in 1221, and subsequently replaced that body. During the remainder of the medieval period, it served as a body primarily aimed at approving tax measures proposed by the King.
