Congress immediately after the election.
The 2013 Congress was the Congress of Lovia between February 1, 2013 and on February 1, 2014, when the 2014 Congress was inaugurated. It was preceded by the 2012 Congress. The 2013 Congress is the third Congress to use the election methods of the 2011 State Reform. Like the previous Congress, the 2013 Congress's executive branch used ministries for its executive branch. The Congress was the first to have a Ministry of Family, Youth, and Elderly. The government chosen by Congress was the Ilava II Government, named after its Prime Minister, Oos Wes Ilava. The 2013 Federal Elections decided the composition of the congress.
History[]
The 2013 Congress succeeded the 2012 Congress, and was the third Congress to use the rules of the 2011 State Reform. After inauguration of the Congress on February 1, the Ilava II Government, comprised of a grand coalition of nearly all parties, was put into power on February 7. Oos Wes Ilava was elected Prime Minister in a Congressional poll, and again led a government of ministries.
In late February 2013, several members of the LP and CNP (as well as two independents) split from their parties to form the SCP. However, the SCP split again later in the year, returning Congress approximately to its previous state.
Composition[]
Like the previous two Congresses, the 2013 Congress had 100 members. The Conservative Christian Party of Lovia had the largest number of seats (19). The Green Party gained the most seats (9) compared to last year's Congress, while the Labour Party lost the most (12). Overall, like the previous Congress, the 2013 Congress was split approximately evenly between leftists, centrists, and rightists.
