The General Assembly of Cycoldia is the legislature of Cycoldia. It was created by the Constitution of the Grand Republic of Cycoldia on 5 May 2019. During this time the United Imperial Empire took management of Cycoldia, in which the tension between them came to a head on 21 May, when the General Assembly of Cycoldia decided to vote in opposition to the "Cannon Law of Texas", in which Charles II of the UIE sent it back to the General Assembly of Cycoldia with an attachment stating that if they failed it again the entire government would be fired. The Grand Republic of Cycoldia responded with declaring independence from the United Imperial Empire. Since then the General Assembly of Cycoldia has been a very influential piece of the Cycoldian government. Elections are from 28 September to 5 October, and from 25 March to 1 April, in which the number voted for is dictated by the Assembly Shortening Act, in which 3 assembly members will be elected each election, and 2 ex officio terms will be renewed each electoral period. The people in the General Assembly ex officio are the Summi Imperatoria, the Prime Minister, the Chief of the Armed Forces, and the Chief of the CSDF. The position of Speaker of the General Assembly is given to the head of the largest party in the Assembly.

Composition

The General Assembly currently has a Monarchist Party supermajority of 80% of the legislature with Brandon Mierzwa caucused with them. The current speaker of the General Assembly is Christina I & II, the leader of the Monarchist Party, and the caretaker Prime Minister is Avery Prasatik. The most recent event was the opening of the 13th General Assembly following election for the September Assembly in accordance with the Assembly Shortening Act.[1] The next election will be the March 2024 general election, which will elect for the March Assembly, consisting of half of the General Assembly.
