Senate of Nouio (Vae victis!)

The Senate of Nouio was the chief legislative arm of the Keltoic government after the unification of Keltoia. Instead of a Senate that represented the whole nation, the Senate of Nouio was merely an evolution of the senate that had ruled Nouio when it was still a city state among the others of Keltoia. So, as a result, the Senate of Nouio was a pretty elitist institution, mostly bending to the will of Nouio, the richest city of the empire, with input from Locudula, Dubron, and Parisi, also influential cities. In addition, contrary from what one would expect from a senate, very few of its members were actually elected. A majority of the positions were either appointed by the Emperor or inherited from its previous holder. Of the 350 seats, 75 were elected by the people.
