*[[Ashweather Cett]] - general; Elend intended to grant Cett a kingdom, but his former Dominance was never reconquered before the [[Catacendre]]
Following his ideas of a fair government Elend created a constitution with the aim to give the [[skaa]] a chance to get involved in politics. This parliament was called the Assembly. It consisted of 24 members, including 8 skaa workers, 8 [[noble]]s (including the king) and 8 tradesmen.

=== The Assembly During the Siege of Luthadel ===
 
When King [[Straff Venture]] brought his army to Luthadel to take over the city from his son Elend, the Assembly evolved to be a threat to Elend's function as king. Regarding the coming winter and the terseness of food and wood/oil to heat the tenements and, before all, the fact that there were only twenty thousand, mostly untrained, troops in the city, the Assembly tended to give the city to Straff. With effort, Elend was able to convince the majority of the Assembly to give him time set up a meeting with his father. Elend was sure, Straff wouldn't attack the city. Then a second army came to Luthadel, headed by another King, [[Ashweather Cett]], making the Assembly even more nervous. Cett made his way into the city and was allowed to take residence in one of the abandoned former Noble's Keeps. Now two armies were besieging Luthadel.
 
Even when a third army -- an army of twenty thousand Koloss, led by King Jastes Lekal -- arrived, Elend tried to convince the Assembly to stay with diplomatic efforts, avoiding a battle that would be desperate and cost a lot of lives.
 
When finally a meeting with Straff was arranged, the Assembly scheduled a meeting at the same time, knowing that Elend couldn't participate and -- in his absence -- degraded him, appointing Lord Penrod as new king. Then they decided to accept Straff as their emperor, although he would never get the city.

The Assembly was abolished after the [[Siege of Luthadel]]. Henceforward the New Empire was a monarchy under King Elend Venture and [[Vin]].

One of Elend's primary goals as emperor is to secure the cities containing the [[storage cavern]]s to ensure those supplies are available to the empire's people. Elend and Vin rescue the city of [[Vetitan]] which is being attacked by koloss and claim it for the New Empire; Elend makes its (formerly skaa) leader, Fatren, a lord.

In the course of the time, each inner [[Dominance]] fellcomes under the reign of the New Empire. However, its capital, [[Luthadel]] fellfalls victim to revolts and a House War due to Ruin's influence on King Penrod through a [[Hemalurgy|Hemalurgic]] spike.{{wob ref|annotation|mb3|chapter=778045}} The survivors escapedescape from the natural disasters into the cache of Luthadel or into the [[Pits of Hathsin]].
