Belgian Federal Parliament

The Belgian Federal Parliament is the national legislative body of Belgium, responsible for making laws and overseeing the government. It consists of two chambers: the Chamber of Representatives and the Senate. The Chamber of Representatives has more power and is directly elected by the people, while the Senate represents regions and communities. The Parliament debates and votes on proposed laws, approves the budget, and can question the government. Belgium's complex political structure reflects its diverse language communities (Dutch, French, and German) and regions (Flanders, Wallonia, and Brussels), requiring collaboration among varied political parties.
