The National Assembly (Midrasian: Ensemble Nacional) is the lower house of the bicameral parliament of Midrasia, which meets in Parliament House in Thraice.
The House is an elected body currently consisting of 612 members known as envoys (Midrasian: envoyiar). Members are elected via MMP, meaning their are both constituency envoys and proportional envoys, whom represent their affiliated political parties.
The National Assmebly evolved at some point in Midrasia during the 18th century, overshadowing the senate as the primary chamber of the Midrasian Parliament. Under the Parliament Act 1894, the Senate's power to reject legislation was reduced to a delaying power. The Government is primarily responsible to the National Assembly and the prime minister stays in office only as long as he or she retains the support of a majority of its members.
The Assembly itself was originally elected via a system of First-past-the-post. However following the election of the SDP-Liberal coalition and the subsequent passing of the constitutional reform act, the Assembly moved to a more proportional system, whilst retaining elements of the traditional constituency system.
