Yi is divided in 31 prefectures. Before 1951 there were several monarchies including three kingdoms, and a couple of free cities; the monarchies were abolished after the constitution change of that year although the titles and families continue to exist in a ceremonial/cultural capacity. Each prefecture is also an electoral district to which one of the 81 seats of the Revised Assembly is linked; this seat is allocated by means of a first past the post system.
Government
Each prefecture has a Regional Assembly, the number of members of which may vary per prefecture. Elections for these assemblies take place regularly. The executive of prefectures are formed by the Regional Council, which consists of a Prefect and Regional Councillors.
