The franchise, electoral system and parliamentary size changed over time. Before national parties emerged, a non-partisan seat total does not imply a single party or common political programme. Unknown votes and vote shares remain unreported. Colours are a display palette. Shared vote cells spanning multiple organisations are recorded once as joint-list electoral cooperation. Separate party rows retain their seats but do not repeat the shared votes. Representatives were chosen by indirect elections through electors under the franchise then in force.
