Landsraad

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), 10 imperial electors 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.

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.
