Council of Two Hundred
The Councils of Two Hundred, originally "Grand Council", were the legislative authorities in four Swiss cities, as well as in the independent Republic of Geneva prior to the French Revolution. Although the council in Geneva dates to 1526, the councils were medieval in origin. They often comprised approximately 200 members, but sometimes contained as many as 300.
They were later on replaced by smaller legislatures, with again the name of "Grand Council".
