Since the constitution Ethiopia enacted in 1995, the country's legal system has run on federal law under a bicameral legislature. The House of Peoples' Representatives, the lower chamber of the Federal Parliamentary Assembly, holds 547 seats and shares executive power with the Prime Minister and Council of Ministers, while the House of Federation, with 108 seats, has the authority to interpret federal law and oversee regional and federal decisions.

Cross-Tradition Connections

In Legal System

Family classification carried over from this entity's own recorded SubLabel (Mixed and Hybrid Legal Systems), assigned under the section-legal-systems structure wave (ruling 761) using the CIA World Factbook / JuriGlobe comparative-law family classification (system.Atlas.DataBrief, law). This edge materializes that existing classification as a connective fact; it is not a new independent research finding.
