Which Is The Oldest Parliament In The World?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    The Icelandic Althing is traditionally given credit. However, this was inspired by the Norwegian Gulating, which was inspired by the Danish Isøre-ting. It is referenced by Saxo Grammaticus and existed from 500 A.D. Hence, by historical reference, the Danish Isøre-ting is the world's oldest parliament.
