The Rin Senate is the governing body of the Rin state (Publicly.) It is formed out of senators and representatives from all the worlds of the Rin empire and many military and corporation senators as well.

All in all it is a force that strives for the best but at times falls short. Corruption and infighting at times hinder its decision making. But at other times the senate will unite under one leader.

Each World gets one senator (One exception is the Homeworld which gets three) Each corporation gets two and the military always has one hundred senators (The 100 legionary worlds). In Total there are over 3000 senators and military dignitaries.

There are very few political parties within the Rin senate but there are many alliances between senators that change every day. Major alliances are 'The Brothers of Cesio' (A party that supports the peaceful conversion of species.), 'Lords of Tabar' (A corporation that cares little about who it hurts, but cares about money.), and 'Legions of sarish' (A pro-military force.)

Political corruption and infighting are quite common. assassinations happen almost on a weekly bases, thus senators have some of the best body guards money can buy. At times alliances will declare war on each other resulting in public denouncing and private suicides or assassinations. On the senate floor a vocal fight can lead to senators using private armies against one another.

Now For make up of the Senate.

The Head of the Senate is the chancellor elected by the senators after the last one has died. Bellow him are the 20 ministers he hand picks to act as a council always five are from the military, 5 from corporations ,and 5 from core worlds. The other five are who ever he picks.

Under them are the main body of the Senators. 3626 strong they are the main decision making body of the State of the Rin empire. Almost all laws are passed to them before the Hegemon approves them.

Then there are the questors and dignitaries of other races. All worlds with a Non-Rin population over 50% are allowed two senators. One for the Rin the other for the Non-Rin. In total there are 526 such individuals.
