The different families and clans slowly began to decrease in number but after the fall of House "Metal" in 1395, the clans stagnated as any move against one another would break the balance of power that existed. This all changed thanks to the Wasi King in 1458. He was a member of House "Light". The Wasi King proposed that all the houses form together and create the country of Canespa. A country that could withstand the forces of any neighboring land. The houses were convinced by both by the Wasi Kings legendary speaking skills and the looming threat of colonizers in the area.

This senate will vote over cultural and internal issues. Effectively acting as a guard to stop extremest Executives from gaining to much power. This senate has little power though and is not always effective. The houses include House Papa, House Espada, House Kuskachay, House Qispisqa Kay, and House Kanchi.
