WORLD'S FIRST LEGISLATURE
The first legislature in the world was formed in Pingvellir, Iceland, in 930.
Called the Alpingi (English: Althing), this legislature met at Thingvellir until 1799, when it disbanded for many years. It returned in 1844, moving to reyjavik, Iceland's capital, where it has been ever since.
The Althings has 63 members in one house of government.
