While its term was officially March 4, 1821, to March 4, 1823, during the fifth and sixth years of James Monroe's presidency, its first session began on December 3, 1821, ending on May 8, 1822, and its second session began on December 2, 1822, to March 3, 1823. The apportionment of seats in the House of Representatives was based on the third Census of the United States in 1810. Both chambers had a Democratic-Republican majority. {{TOC limit|2}}Major events{{Main article|1821 in the United States|1822 in the United States|1823 in the United States}}- March 5, 1821: Second inauguration of James Monroe as President of the United States.[1]
