=== Origin ===
 
 
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.
