Purpose

This entry clarifies the role of a national or collective assembly within Tsm’syen governance.

Houses and clans retain responsibility for their members, territories, and internal matters.

Their jurisdiction continues regardless of Assembly involvement.

The Assembly brings together voices where issues extend beyond a single house or clan.

It helps organize response, communication, and common action.

It does not assume ownership of local authority.

The Assembly cannot extinguish house or clan responsibility.

It cannot override ayaawx.

It cannot absorb powers that originate elsewhere.

Proper coordination strengthens the Nation while preserving internal balance.
