Bicameral system
A bicameral system is a legislative structure with two separate chambers or houses that share the power to create laws. Typically, one chamber represents the population more directly (like the House of Representatives), while the other represents regions or states equally (like the Senate). This setup aims to balance the interests of both the people and the regions, ensuring thorough review and debate of legislation before it becomes law. Many countries, including the United States, have bicameral legislatures to promote fairness, comprehensive decision-making, and stability in the legislative process.
