Osweya is divided into 4 Duchies, 16 Counties, 3 Bishoprics and 3 Communes (cities), each with their own local government

Carena is divided into 6 indiviual Republics that send elected officials for representation in Libertatem:

• Pacifica
• Atlantis
• Mason-Dixon
• Europa Occidentis
• Europa Orientalis
• Oceania

Among the Republics, they are further divided into states, counties, and individual cities. As many megalopolises across Carena have formed into one single administrative unit, megalopolises are often treated as states, while the subdivisions in megalopolises are treated like counties (but called districts) and have town-sized local administrative areas within the districts called Baronies. In addition to the 6 Republics, Carena also has territories belonging to special designations. Most notably are the two Carenian-affiliated colonial confederations on Mars; the Carenian Martian Authority and the Carenian-Martian State of Deseret. Both nations must adhere to the Constitution of Carena, foreign affairs and defense are handled by Carena, and each legal resident is a Carenian citizen. However, laws passed in Libertatem do not apply to the Martian states unless their own legislature agrees to pass it (with an exception for matters relating to foreign affairs and defense, but the legislatures of these states can petition bills regarding those two subjects to the Supreme Court of Carena). Another notable special division is the Federal District of Libertatem, which encompasses the capital megalopolis of Libertatem. The District behaves in the same way as a Republic does on a smaller scale, including sending representatives to Congress.

The Kingdom of Orange-Bourgogne has several administrative levels and numerous forms of divisions. The Kingdom is made up of several Realms, which historically were the sovereign states of which our monarch was the monarch of at those times. These Realms are, in order of seniority: 1) the Kingdom of England; 2) the Principality of Orange; 3) the Duchy of Bourgogne; and 4) the Principality of Monaco-Monte Carlo.

Aside from these divisions mostly used for historic and ceremonial reasons, the first tier of administrative level are the Provinces. These are: 1) the Province of England; 2) the Province of Scotland; 3) the Province of [Northern] Ireland; 4) the Province of Orange; 5) the Province of Orange; 6) the Province of Bourgogne; and finally the Overseas Territories. Monaco-Monte Carlo does not have a provincial level, due to their small geographic area and relatively small population.

The second tier of administrative level are the Shires (Counties/Regions). There are about 30 Regions. They also encompass all individual Territories that fall in the category of an Overseas Territory. Also, the Crown Dominions are part of these.

The third level of administrative level are the Constituencies. There are 500 Constituencies in totoal. Each send, after an election, one Member of Parliament to the Lower House (House of Commons). However, we must add that there are various exceptions to these, as this is merely a general overview with little details.

Subhurbia is divided into 11 major divisions. Nine are located on the mainland, and two are nearby island states. On the mainland there is Central Subhurbia, which is the main region where the sovereignty’s capital is located. Here is where international relations are settled. There are four primary divisions, excluding Central Subhurbia, and that’s North Subhurbia, South Subhurbia, East Subhurbia, and West Subhurbia. Each are unique in their own way. Then the other regions also located in the mainland are Northeast Subhurbia, Southeast Subhurbia, Northwest Subhurbia, and Southwest Subhurbia. The two regions outside the mainland are Euraea, and Raegonia.

Necropolis is divided up into a large (and ever increasing) number of regions. Each region is a part of a galaxy, with borders arbitrarily drawn by the federal government. Within each region are star systems, which are further broken up into asteroid belts and planetary systems.

A region is ruled by a Chadfela (Chief Administrator of Federal Law). Each star system is ruled by a Hisysad (High System Administrator), who answers to the Chadfela. Each planetary system or asteroid belt is ruled by a Losysad (Low System Administrator). Under a Losysad may be an Astesysad (Asteroid System Administrator) or Lusysad (Lunar System Administrator) or two, depending on whether or not there are any particularly important asteroids or moons in that system.

In addition to these divisions, a Chadfela also has a Chisecfela (Chief Security Officer of Federal Law), an Adenatre (Administrator of Energy and Natural Resources), and an Adedusci (Administrator of Education and Sciences) under them, to help them control the region. Each one of these people have their own regional police force (Adedusci has two different regional police forces) covering their specific area: Secpo (Regional Security Police), Natpo (Regional Natural Resource Police), Edupo (Regional Education Police), and Scipo (Regional Science Police).

A map of how even just one galaxy is divided would be difficult at best, as space is a three dimensional space with no real "up" or "down".

Knessniet has two kinds of divisions:
- There are 8 counties. Each one is run by a landed Count. These run fairly autonomously, but have to comply with the Duke's regulations.
- There are 10 Administrative Districts, each one ruled by a Governor. The governor is hand-picked by the Duke, and rules for life. Otherwise, it is the same as a county.

10 Districts are split up, each with about the same population. The districts are all under federal control, but they can have a Governor and a District Assembly.

Districts deal only with LOCAL issues. The federal government controls just about everything. Local governments control things like property laws, zoning, and creating additional, localized welfare programs.

We've 4 regions, 6 constituencies and 14 municipalities. Regions normally cover administration, constituencies culture and community projects and municipalities environment and local flora. There is no national government level, so in essence, the municipalities are autonomous. Regional government still discuss what occurs with the nation in international matters, though.

Two of the constituencies and 5 municipalities are part of the agricultural provinces, which (along with Place Municipality - Spiritual and Event centre of the nation) aren't inhabited and thus have little autonomy on their own right - their government positions are held by citizens of select inhabited municipalities.

The United Realms of the Snawn are, as the name might suggest, subdivided into realms, which form a Commonwealth.
The six realms are: Hilland, Systria, Isöya, Soinsjen, Sedamnia-Petöya, and Gildursland.
They administrate themselves pretty much, so their respective subdivisions are completely left up to them. A unified system for all of the Snawn lands exists only for statistical purposes.

The Philippine Federocracy is composed of three independent nations: the Luzon Democratic Republic, Visayas Democratic Republic, and Mindanao Democratic Republic, and is ruled under the constitutionally weak Federal Government situated in the capital District of Manila. These three semi-sovereign countries are divided into states and four autonomous regions, with one in the Luzon Republic, one in the Visayas, and two in Mindanao. The states are listed according to color brightness (darkest to lightest):

Luzon Democratic Republic	Visayas Democratic Republic	Mindanao Democratic Republic
1. Ilokos (IK)	Panay (PN)	Sambuwangga (SB)
2. Kordiliera (KD)	Negros (NR)	Kota Bato (KB)
3. Kagayan (KG)	Visayas Sentral (VS)	Dabaw (DW)
4. Luzon Sentral (LS)	Leyte (LY)	Surigao (SI)
5. Katagalugan (KA)	Samar (SM)
6. Bikol (BO)
7. Mindoro (MD)

These state are divided into districts, and are further broken apart into communes (municipalities or cities). Each commune has at least 5 barangays, and are further divided into puroks, also known as sitios for the less urbanized units. A purok is classified into sections, with a minimum of 3 per purok, headed by a purok leader.

■ Federal President
-□ Head of the Republic
--● State Representative
---○ District Chief
----◆ Mayor of the Commune

The Nikopolian Empire and Archoncy of Thama is a federal state, divided into 23 states and 3 territories. All 3 territories and 17 of the states, not counting their near-shore islands and the barrier chains, are located on mainland Nikopol. The remaining 6 states are wholly insular.

The states all possess an elected assembly, usually a state congress or diet, and an Erker. The Erker is a hereditary noble and a mostly ceremonial role, but they possess some limited vetoing power against the decisions of their state's government. The territories are wholly under the rule of their Erker, who in the case of the Capital District Territory is the Archon, Cedric Stargard, the Emperor of Nikopol. They still possess elected councils for day-to-day rule and administration, however the Erker has the final say in the territories.

Further subdivisions - such as provinces, duchies, communes, and towns - are set up by their states and serve no purpose on a federal level, and are far too numerous to list.



The following is a list of all the states (numbered on the map) in the format of -State-, -Capital City-, and, if applicable, -Agglomeration- (bestating)

Many places in Thama, as well as all over Asnea, were named after places and people from Terra. In English, the places are often translated as "New -Place-" which means for instance that the state of Kolumbia and its capital Vankuver are rendered as New Columbia and New Vancouver in English. Likewise the city of Amsteltham is translated as New Amsterdam and the Washyngton bestating is translated as the New Washington Agglomeration. These translations are only for the purpose of clarification, as these places have been named such for 3 millennia and nobody really remembers their namesakes, often only finding out about "Old" Amsteltham or "Old" Kolumbia through late night archive binging on the Arkship servers.
