All [[Andorian|Andorians]] are members of clans, or ''keth'', which specialise in different professional skills. These ''keth'' all have different views, which need to be represented in some way in the global government. As such, the Kethni council, made up of a number of members from different ''keth'' is the global government of Andoria, and it comprises around 300 members. Legislation, as well as the election of a Chancellor, is decided democratically.
