Description: Here we see a group of Houyhnhnms in debate at the general assembly. At this assembly, representatives from the different regions of the Country debate issues facing the Houyhnhnms. The council met every four years. One of the issues debated at this Council was whether Gulliver should be allowed to continue to live with the Houyhnhnms. The council ultimately decided Gulliver could not continue to live with the Houyhnhnms, and he must either live with the yahoos on the Country of the Houyhnhnms or return to Europe.
