Upper House
An upper house is one of two Legislative chamber, chambers of a bicameralism, bicameral legislature, the other chamber being the lower house. The house formally designated as the upper house is usually smaller and often has more restricted power than the lower house. A legislature composed of only one house (and which therefore has neither an upper house nor a lower house) is described as unicameralism, unicameral. History While the Roman Senate, senate of the ancient roman kingdom 755 BC was the first assembly of aristocrats counseling the king, the first upper house of a bicameral legislature was the medieval House of Lords consisting of the archbishops, bishops, abbots and nobility, which emerged during the reign of King Edward III around 1341 when the Parliament clearly separated into two distinct Debating chamber, chambers, the House of Commons of England, House of Commons, consisting of the shire and borough representatives, and the House of Lords. 1808 Spain adopted ...

The kingdom was a member of the Council of Aragon and initially consisted of the islands of Corsica and Sardinia, sovereignty over both of which was claimed by the papacy, which granted them as a fief, the (Kingdom of Sardinia and Corsica), to King James II of Aragon in 1297. Beginning in 1324, James and his successors Aragonese conquest of Sardinia, conquered the island of Sardinia and established ''de facto'' their ''de jure'' authority.

Parliament Of The Kingdom Of Sardinia
The Parliament of the Kingdom of Sardinia (), also called Subalpine Parliament (), was the bicameral parliament of the Kingdom of Sardinia. History It was established in 1848 by the Albertine Statute and became the Parliament of the Kingdom of Italy upon the unification of Italy in 1861.

There were two chambers: * The Subalpine Senate, whose members were appointed for life by the King of Sardinia, which could not be dissolved, and was based at the Palazzo Madama; * The Chamber of Deputies, whose members were elected by men who met a property qualification, through a first past the post system, with staggered terms. It was based at the Palazzo Carignano. Joint sessions of the Parliament, for solemn occasions like the "speech from the crown" (''discorso della corona''), were held at the Palazzo Carignano, for space reasons. The two chambers were theoretically equal in power (the so-called "Perfect bicameralis ...

Perfect Fusion
The Perfect Fusion () was the 1847 act of the Savoyard King Charles Albert of Sardinia which abolished the administrative differences between the mainland states (Savoy and Piedmont) and the island of Sardinia within the Kingdom of Sardinia, in a fashion similar to the Nueva Planta decrees between the Crown of Castile and the realms of the Crown of Aragon between 1707 and 1716 and the Acts of Union between Great Britain and Ireland in 1800. The once-Aragonese Kingdom of Sardinia had become a possession of the House of Savoy in 1720, and it had continued to be ruled as during the era of the Spanish Empire. Although the Sardinian people had been showing hostility against the new Piedmontese rulers since a failed insurrection in 1794, the island's separate status from the mainland became a problem for the local notables from the two major cities of Cagliari and Sassari when liberal reforms began to be put in force in Turin, and some of them started to see their own legal sys ...

Subalpine Republic
The Subalpine Republic () was a short-lived republic that existed between 1800 and 1802 on the territory of Piedmont during its military rule by the French Consulate. History Piedmont was the main part of the Kingdom of Sardinia which, despite its name, had its core on the mainland. The kingdom suffered a first French invasion in 1796, which led to the Treaty of Paris and the loss of Savoy and Nice. After a second invasion in 1798, King Charles Emmanuel IV escaped to Rome, but he never agreed to sign a new peace treaty, approving a final arrangement of its continental territories according to international law. The Piedmontese Republic was declared on 10 September 1798 and it existed until 20 June 1799, when it was conquered by Austro-Russian troops. However, Russian Marshall Alexander Suvorov was the sole political actor showing the will to restore the Kingdom of Sardinia's authority in Piedmont: as the old Republic’s fate was the annexation to France, the Austrian goal ...

1848 Establishments In The Kingdom Of Sardinia
1848 is historically famous for the wave of revolutions, a series of widespread struggles for more liberal governments, which broke out from Brazil to Hungary; although most failed in their immediate aims, they significantly altered the political and philosophical landscape and had major ramifications throughout the rest of the century.
