Senate of Salisford

The Senate of Salisford (Salisfordian: Senato) is the upper house of the bicameral Salisfordian Parliament (the other being the Grand Council). The two houses together form a perfect bicameral parliament having the same function and each having equal power to the other, but doing so separately. The Senate currently has 345 seats. The number is variable, made up of royally-appointees, provincial representatives, and clergy. The Senate was established by King Carlo I of Salisford in 1802 making it the oldest extant legislative body in Salisford. Members of the Senate are styled Senator or Sir (Salisfordian: Signore) and they meet at Palazzo Senato, Savotta.
