Andorra, formed through a charter granted by Charlemagne in 988, has since evolved into a co-principality with the president of France and the bishop of Urgell as co-princes. These two positions are ceremonial and have no vested powers in the running of Andorran affairs. Real power is held by the unicameral parliament of Andorra, a legislative body referred to as the General Council. The number of “councillors,” as the members of parliament are titled, varies between 28 and 42 individuals.
