The Colonial Senate is the unicameral legislature of Xisheng | The Colonial Senate is the unicameral legislature of Xisheng, a successor body to the deliberative Settler Commission that existed under the Qian administration. The Colonial Senate is composed of fifty six members, elected to terms of five years; there is no established limit on the number of terms that members can serve which has historically resulted in a Senate that is filled with members of a few select political dynasties. | ||

Historically the segregation of ethnic [[Daxian people|Daxians]] from the conquered groups living on Xisheng was something that happened organically and not as a result of a top down dictate from local governments. Certain degree of intermixing was even tolerated as a way to promote social harmony and foster supporters of [[Daxia]] from people of mixed background. The [[Party of Daxian Democrats|PDD]] put a stop to this status quo immediately upon taking power, clamping down on race mixing and beginning a policy of urban isolation of minorities by driving them into delineated pockets to live in. In 2015 the Law on Autonomies was passed by the legislature, this law provided for the creation of quasi autonomous administrative regions within Xisheng for certain ethnic groups known as Autonomies. There are currently only two existing designated Autonomies, the [[Chimoche|Chimor]] Autonomy and the Ixa'Taka Autonomy, homeland of the Chimor and [[Ixa'Taka]] ethnic groups respectively. | Historically the segregation of ethnic [[Daxian people|Daxians]] from the conquered groups living on Xisheng was something that happened organically and not as a result of a top down dictate from local governments.
