The oldest parliamentary assembly in the world is the Althing, the national parliament of Iceland. Established in 930 AD at Þingvellir, it is recognized as one of the earliest forms of a legislative assembly, where chieftains and their followers gathered to discuss laws and resolve disputes. The Althing continues to function today, maintaining its historical significance and democratic role in Icelandic governance.
