Verona Chamber

The Verona Chamber of Emissaries is the lower house of the Verona General Assembly, the upper house being the Senate of Verona. The Chamber convenes, along with the Senate, at the Verona State Capitol in Sevilla.

The Chamber consists of 120 members, with each member representing at least 635,000 people. Due to a combination of the state's large population and relatively small legislature, the Assembly has the largest population-per-representative ratio of any state lower house and second-largest of any legislative lower house in Cartadania after the federal Chamber of Emissaries, itself representing ~734,000 people per representative.

In the current legislative session, SocDems enjoy a six-sevenths supermajority of 102 seats, while UCons control a minority of 16 seats and Independents hold the remaining 2 seats.
