General Assembly of the French Empire (Napoleon's World)

The General Assembly is the primary legislative body of the French Empire. It is a tricameral body made up of three "colleges" - the directly elected College of Citizens, the College of Peers, which is appointed by local legislators, and the College of Imperial Officers, who are appointed by the Emperor. The General Assembly is the successor to the Grand Assembly, which was permanently disbanded in 1938 during the French Civil War.

The current President of the General Assembly is Nicolas Sarkozy, who serves as the "legislator-in-chief" of the body and is thus the effective head of the French Empire's legislative wing.
