They meet in the Kings State Capitol in the forum and the building also houses the various other departments of the State Government including the offices of the State Governor, State Judge, Kings First Minister and Speaker. While the forum is not open to the general public, Kingsers are encouraged to get in touch with their locally elected Representatives and Senators.

A round of the State Council starts when a bill is proposed in the Council of Representatives when this happens, no other bills may be proposed until the round is over. The round is divided into a week of debate, four days of voting in the Council of Representatives and then three days of voting in the Senate. During the week of debate members may propose amendments to the bill. During the week of voting the bill may not be altered and members may vote on whether to pass the bill. Each member has one vote each and may cast it in favour of the bill or against it or not cast it at all, only cast votes are counted. If a bill passes through the Council of Representatives but not through the Senate, the Council of representatives may bypass the Senate through another round of voting excluding the Senate with the round lasting four days but in the case of veto's by the Governor, the Senate may not be bypassed.
