Imperial Senate

The Imperial Senate is the lawmaking body of the Intergalactic Empire. It regularly meets on the regular capital of Chandilar, but sometimes it meets on Coruscant. It is composed of over 10,000 members. Some members are hereditary nobles belonging to the Neramani royal family, but most are appointed by the ruling Magister or Magistrix on the advice of the Supreme Chancellor, and indeed subject to the Chancellor's veto. Most of the senators are Shi'ar or Humans, but members of other races (third races) have been appointed.

Appointed senators can only be removed by majority vote of the Senate, and even then only for serious crimes.

Bodyguards
The members of the Imperial Senate had their own personal bodyguards, the Senate Guard.
