The '''Senate of the Lakes''' (Hurmu Norse: ''Aldraraaðeð sjooa''; Lakkvian: ''Järvede vanematekogu''; White Lontinian: ''Nuuruudyn Akhmadyn zövlöl''; Blue Lontinian: ''Kölder aqsaqaldarı keñesi''; Crandish: ''Altonratt ties Zeivers''), also known as the '''Senate of Hurmu''' and the '''Senate''', is the upper chamber of the [[Parlerment]] (or legislature) of [[Hurmu]], and is also the collective [[Rulers of Hurmu|head of state of Hurmu]].
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]].  


It currently has 9 members who are elected by the [[Electors to the Senate of the Lake|Electors]], that is the adult members of the [[Order of the Holy Lakes]]. The first election [[1690 Parlerment elections|occurred in 1690]]. The last election [[1695 Parlerment elections|occurred in 1695]]. The next election is scheduled to occur in [[1701 Parlerment elections|1701]] AN.
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 was originally created by [[Prince Andelarion]] as the '''Electorate of Hurmu''' in 1514. Quickly renamed to the Senate of the Lakes, it was in session from 1522 to 1558, from 1563 to 1574, from 1600 to 1603, and it has been in session since 1690 onwards.

==Senate 1695– ==
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 seven 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]]), and from {{AN|1719}} and onwards ([[Eleventh Senate|XI]]).
=== Members ===
 
{| class="wikitable sortable"
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.
! Portrait !! Name !! Birth !! Death !! Tenure !! Faction !! Comment
 
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 will be expanded with two new members, giving the Senate 20 members. It is expected that the Senate that meets then will be known as the [[Twelfth Senate]] (XII).

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.

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 Palace of the Elenaran, where the Senate of the Lakes meets.

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 seven 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), and from 1719 AN and onwards (XI).

The First Senate began with 12 senators. The largest Senate occurred in 1598 AN with 25 senators (Fourth Senate), and the smallest Senate was also 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 will be expanded with two new members, giving the Senate 20 members. It is expected that the Senate that meets then will be known as the Twelfth Senate (XII).
