High Parliament
The High Parliament is the elected legislative body that governs the affairs of the Lordship of Anshara. Formally the Gilded Lord Tanyth does not interfere in mundane matters of state beyond her once in a decade address to Parliament, and as such the body itself has the authority to govern the vast empire from Kaathlin. Only landholding elf-blooded citizens are allowed to take part in parliamentary elections.
The High Parliament has become split between two factions, the newer being the Aurics, who represent the growing mercantile class advocating for increased corporate power and expansion of the voting franchise to all elf-blooded citizens. The old establishment are the Azures, who represent the landholding aristocracy and their interests of breaking corporate power and integrating the colonies with the central government. Each faction props up candidates in hotly-contested elections and advocates for their interests in legislative matters.
