Multicameralism.html



In contrast to unicameralism, Multicameralism or 'polycameralism' is the condition of having multiple legislative branches of government. This can include bicameralism with two branches, tricameralism with three, tetracameralism with four branches, or a system with any amount more. The word "multicameral" can also relate in other ways to its literal meaning of "many chambered" with use in science or biology.
