Parliamentlegislature whose power and function are similar to those dictated by the Westminster system of the United KingdomTheBritish Houses of Parliament,LondonAparliamentis a type oflegislature.The most famous parliament is probably the one in theUnited Kingdom, which is sometimes called the "Mother of all Parliaments".[1]The word "parliament" comes from the French wordparler, which means a talk.TheAlthing, the national parliament ofIceland, was founded earlier (930 AD), so it is the oldest legislature in the world still existing. However, theAlthing did not function as a legislature for four centuries, and its role as aprimarylegislature is modern.[2][3]How the British Parliament worksThe Parliament of the United Kingdom is split intothree separate parts, theHouse of Commons(thelower house), thelords(theupper house) and theMonarch.
