The '''Landsraad''' is the highest and oldest [[Legislature of Shireroth|legislative body]] in [[Shireroth]]. Presided over by the [[Prætor]] (currently [[Tinker Sprocket]], [[Count of Machinaria]]), the imperial electors (as the members of the Landsraad are called) meet in the Hall of Oratory in the [[Palace of Zirandorthel]] in [[Shirekeep]] to make laws, elect the [[Steward]], and make important resolutions. Compared to the [[Adelsraad]], the [[Folksraad]], and the legislative powers of the Steward, the Landsraad is the most powerful body of them all.

The Landsraad meets in the Palace of Zirandorthel

The Landsraad is the highest and oldest legislative body in Shireroth. Presided over by the Prætor (currently Tinker Sprocket, Count of Machinaria), the imperial electors (as the members of the Landsraad are called) meet in the Hall of Oratory in the Palace of Zirandorthel in Shirekeep to make laws, elect the Steward, and make important resolutions. Compared to the Adelsraad, the Folksraad, and the legislative powers of the Steward, the Landsraad is the most powerful body of them all.

For more information, see the Shirewiki article: Landsraad

Members

Members of the Imperial Peerage above the degree of "Baron" (i.e. Barons are not included) are eligible for membership in the Landsraad. Regardless of rank or how many peerages they hold, members only have one vote each.

Members are officially titled Imperial Electors. Members are considered unseated if they have yet to give oaths to the Living Kaiser or have yet to have those oaths received, as stipulated in Imperial Decree "Landsraad Reform", Article 1, and thus are eligible for a seat on the Landsraad but have yet to be seated.

See Imperial Peerage for a list of peers.

Landsraad Rule

The Landsraad has at various times in Shireroth's history (briefly) ruled the country in lieu of the Kaiser, usually when the Golden Mango Throne was vacant after the demise or abdication of the Kaiser of Shireroth and the Landsraad was in the process of electing the next Kaiser, or in the case of 1475, electing a Ruling Steward while the imperial succession was worked out. The last Landsraad rule was in 1644, following the demise of Kaiser Dominus during the Oustfest Massacre. The Landsraad elected Noor to be Shireroth's Kaiseress.
