The Senate consists of 18 senators. Senators hold permanent seats. Senators may gift or will away their seat. The Senate may also destroy seats or create new ones to be filled by internal election (i.e., the Senate elects a person to fill the seat) or external election (i.e., the adult members of the [[Order of the Holy Lakes]] elect someone to fill the seat).
The '''Senate of the Lakes''', also known as the '''Senate of Hurmu''' and the '''Senate''', is the legislature and sovereign of the [[Order of the Holy Lakes]], and, by extension, [[Hurmu]]. The Senate is also the constitutional court of Hurmu, and it decides on rules governing the [[Order of the Holy Lakes]] and the [[Almanac of the Holy Lakes|membership thereof]].

The Senate consists of 28 senators. Fourteen senators hold permanent seats. These senators may gift or will away their seat. Another fourteen seats are elected every twelve years.


The Senate was originally created by [[Prince Andelarion]] as the '''Electorate of Hurmu''' in {{AN|1514}}. Quickly renamed to the Senate of the Lakes, it was in session from {{AN|1522}} to {{AN|1536}} ([[First Senate|I]]), from {{AN|1542}} to {{AN|1558}} ([[Second Senate|II]]), and from {{AN|1570}} to {{AN|1574}} ([[Third Senate|III]]). Thereafter, it was in session from {{AN|1574}} until {{AN|1599}} ([[Fourth Senate|IV]]) as the merged Senate of [[Realm of Elwynn and Hurmu|Elwynn and Hurmu]], and from {{AN|1599}} as the Senate of an independent Hurmu once more, until {{AN|1603}} ([[Fifth Senate|V]]), when it was effectively destroyed during the [[Hurmu genocide]]. After Hurmu's reunification in {{AN|1690}}, the Senate has been in eight sessions: {{AN|1690}}–{{AN|1695}} ([[Sixth Senate|VI]]), {{AN|1695}}–{{AN|1701}} ([[Seventh Senate|VII]]), {{AN|1701}}–{{AN|1707}} ([[Eighth Senate|VIII]]), {{AN|1708}}–{{AN|1712}} ([[Ninth Senate|IX]]), {{AN|1713}}–{{AN|1718}} ([[Tenth Senate|X]]), {{AN|1719}}–{{AN|1727}} ([[Eleventh Senate|XI]]), and from {{AN|1728}} and onwards (([[Twelfth Senate|XII]]). The Eleventh Senate is expected to end in 1734 and be replaced by the [[Thirteenth Senate]] after the [[1733 Senate of the Lakes election|1733 elections]].

After Hurmu's reunification in {{AN|1690}}, the Senate has been in nine sessions: {{AN|1690}}–{{AN|1695}} ([[Sixth Senate|VI]]), {{AN|1695}}–{{AN|1701}} ([[Seventh Senate|VII]]), {{AN|1701}}–{{AN|1707}} ([[Eighth Senate|VIII]]), {{AN|1708}}–{{AN|1712}} ([[Ninth Senate|IX]]), {{AN|1713}}–{{AN|1718}} ([[Tenth Senate|X]]), {{AN|1719}}–{{AN|1727}} ([[Eleventh Senate|XI]]), {{AN|1728}}–{{AN|1734}} ([[Twelfth Senate|XII]]), {{AN|1734}}–{{AN|1745}} ([[Thirteenth Senate|XIII]]), and from {{AN|1746}} and onwards ([[Fourteenth Senate|XIV]]). The [[fifteenth Senate]] is due to be inaugurated in 1751 or 1752.


The [[First Senate]] began with 12 senators. The largest Senate occurred in {{AN|1598}} with 25 senators ([[Fourth Senate]]), and the smallest Senate was also in the Fourth Senate, in its early years {{AN|1674}}–{{AN|1681}} with only four Senators.
The [[First Senate]] began with 12 senators. By {{AN|1598}}, it had 25 senators ([[Fourth Senate]]). The smallest Senate was also found in the Fourth Senate, in its early years {{AN|1674}}–{{AN|1681}} with only four Senators.


Since the Senate's reestablishment in {{AN|1690}}, the Senate first had 9 members until {{AN|1701}} when it was doubled. Ever since, the Senate has had 18 members. On 1.I.1728, the Senate was expanded with two new members, giving the Senate 20 members. The [[Thirteenth Senate]] expanded the Senate with another 8 seats, giving it a total of 28 seats. However, 14 of them are permanent seats, and only 14 of them [[1733 Senate of the Lakes election|were elected]].

The Senate of the Lakes, also known as the Senate of Hurmu and the Senate, is the legislature and sovereign of the Order of the Holy Lakes, and, by extension, Hurmu. The Senate is also the constitutional court of Hurmu, and it decides on rules governing the Order of the Holy Lakes and the membership thereof.

The Senate consists of 28 senators. Fourteen senators hold permanent seats. These senators may gift or will away their seat. Another fourteen seats are elected every twelve years.

The Senate was originally created by Prince Andelarion as the Electorate of Hurmu in 1514 AN. Quickly renamed to the Senate of the Lakes, it was in session from 1522 AN to 1536 AN (I), from 1542 AN to 1558 AN (II), and from 1570 AN to 1574 AN (III). Thereafter, it was in session from 1574 AN until 1599 AN (IV) as the merged Senate of Elwynn and Hurmu, and from 1599 AN as the Senate of an independent Hurmu once more, until 1603 AN (V), when it was effectively destroyed during the Hurmu genocide. After Hurmu's reunification in 1690 AN, the Senate has been in nine sessions: 1690 AN–1695 AN (VI), 1695 AN–1701 AN (VII), 1701 AN–1707 AN (VIII), 1708 AN–1712 AN (IX), 1713 AN–1718 AN (X), 1719 AN–1727 AN (XI), 1728 AN–1734 AN (XII), 1734 AN–1745 AN (XIII), and from 1746 AN and onwards (XIV). The fifteenth Senate is due to be inaugurated in 1751 or 1752.

The First Senate began with 12 senators. By 1598 AN, it had 25 senators (Fourth Senate). The smallest Senate was also found in the Fourth Senate, in its early years 1674 AN–1681 AN with only four Senators.

Since the Senate's reestablishment in 1690 AN, the Senate first had 9 members until 1701 AN when it was doubled. Ever since, the Senate has had 18 members. On 1.I.1728, the Senate was expanded with two new members, giving the Senate 20 members. The Thirteenth Senate expanded the Senate with another 8 seats, giving it a total of 28 seats. However, 14 of them are permanent seats, and 14 of them are elected by the electors of the Holy Lakes.
