The Centuriate Assembly is made up of 150 [[Centurion of Lucrecia|centurions]] who are appointed by the legislatures of the [[Communities, cantons, and linguistic areas of Lucrecia|cantons and linguistic communities]] and serve for five years.

The two segments of the Popular Assembly are the [[Tributary Assembly]] and the [[Common Assembly]]. The Tributary Assembly is made up of 200 [[Tributary of Lucrecia|tributaries]] who are directly elected under the system of {{wp|first-past-the-post voting}} within eighteen constituencies, and serve for three years. 109 tributaries are from the Isurian language group, and 91 tributaries are part of the Pelaxian language group. The Common Assembly is made of 200 [[Popular Representative of Lucrecia|popular representatives]] who are directly elected under the system of {{wp|open list}} {{wp|proportional representation}}, with an {{wp|electoral threshold}} of 5%, and serve for three years as well.
