Rajyaghar is a {{wp|federation}} of 25 Union States and one federal territory ([[Kinadica|Capital District]]), which are grouped into 6 regions. Each state is divided into {{wp|Provinces}} which are subdivided into {{wp|Communes}}. In the smaller union states of [[Bishnupur]], [[Kendra Pradesh]] and [[Dalar Bewar]] there are only Communes. The 25 Union States are based on the historical [[Middle Kingdoms (Rajyaghar)|middle kingdoms]] of Rajyaghar with all of them retaining their royal families which serve as ceremonial representatives of the Monarch in the Union States and are granted the titles of ''"Rajakumar of the Union State"''.

{{Politics of Rajyaghar}}
The '''Union States and Federal Territories''' of [[Rajyaghar]] are the principal administrative divisions of the Kingdom. The Kingdom is a {{wp|federation}} of 24 Union States and 2 Federal Territories. The Union States and Federal Territories are further subdivided into Provinces and Communes.


===State Governments===
[Brief history]. The administrative divisions are based on the historical [[Madhyarajyas|middle kingdoms]] of Rajyaghar with all of them retaining their royal families which serve as ceremonial representatives of the Monarch in the Union States and are granted the titles of ''"Rajakumar of the Union State"''. The Federal Districts are governed differently and have different ceremonial representatives of the Monarch. In [[Bishnupur]] it is the High Priest and in [[Kinadica]] it is the Governor.


Governance of the Union States is divided between the [[Central Union Government|federal]] and state governments. Each Union State has a legislature which, depending on the state, will either be {{wp|unicameral}} or {{wp|bicameral}}. In the majority of cases, the larger states have bicameral legislatures with the upper house having provincial representatives and the lower house having communal representatives. Following the {{wp|Westminster System|Northabbey model}}, the State Governments are led by First Ministers, who are members of the state legislature from the majority party. State elections are held every 5 years which, since 1995, have been at the same time as federal elections.

Governance related to lower-level administration is further devolved from state governments to local authorities, including {{wp|city councils}} and {{wp|municipal councils}}. Whilst state governments hold jurisdiction over local authorities, since the passage of the 12th Amendment in 1965, the federal government can request the Monarch to suspend a state government and replace them with a Governor (executive) and Governor's Council (legislature).

Since independence, the federal government has slowly reduced the powers granted to the state governments through legislating over previously un-prescribed duties, which combined with lack of development and federal intervention in state affairs, has led to increasing popularity of secession movements in the states of [[Tarkhana]], [[Sasipur]] and [[Pinjar]]. During ''the Emergency'', the 13th Amendment was transferred jurisdiction of the police from state governments to the federal government.

State Governance

Governor Siraskiar of Kinadica

Governance of the Union States is divided between the federal and state governments. Each Union State has a unicameral legislature. Following the Northabbey model, the State Governments are led by First Ministers, who are members of the state legislature from the majority party. State elections are held every 5 years which, since 1995, have been at the same time as federal elections.

Governance related to lower-level administration is further devolved from state governments to local authorities; the Provincial and Communal Councils. Whilst state governments hold jurisdiction over local authorities, the federal government can request the Monarch to invoke Article X of the Constitution, granting the Governor the right to intervene and potentially suspend the State Government.

The federal constitution outlines the following duties to be exercised by the state governments:

  • Management of transportation and local infrastructure
  • Provision of emergency services (excluding the police since 1965)
  • Local planning and zoning
  • Education outside of the national curriculum
