The Congress of the Confederated States of Gran Verionia (Martino: Congreso de la Estados Confederados de Gran Verionia) is the bicameral parliament of Gran Verionia. It was established in 1683 to replace the Grand Council of Verionian States. The Congress consists of the 24-seat Council of States and the 300-seat chamber of representatives.

The bicameral parliament was introduced in 1683 to establish a better representation of the entire nation following the Northern Expansion. The Council of States was introduced, which functions as a non-proportional representation of the Republics, States and Territories of Gran Verionia.

Consejo de los Estados

The Council of States is the upper chamber of the Congress. The role of the Council is to ratify legislation passed by the Chamber of Representatives, as well as to confirm government appointments. Its members represent the Republics, States and Territories of Gran Verionia. The members of the Council of States are appointed by the local legislatures. The membership of the Council of States is not representative. Each Republic appoints three members of the Council, while each State and Territory appoints two.
