The Federation of Ottonian Republics is a federal state, with its current system of federalism dating back to 1935, as a direct consequence of the collapse of the Ottonia City government during the Great Northern War. Due to the swift decapitation of the previous federal government, local and state governments were largely left on their own to coordinate with Federal Army elements, finally reuniting as a political entity with the Skarrsboro Accord of 1936. In those agreements, the various state and local governments subsumed their efforts to overall federal authority, but not one another's authority. This would serve as the foundation in the postwar era for reorganizing the country, allowing for greater local autonomy to the resulting bodies, known in the New Foundation of Ottonia as "Constituent Republics".

Under the North Ottonian system of federalism, the Constituent Republics are granted a high degree of autonomy, being bound only by the tenets of the New Foundation itself and a federal government whose role is largely to coordinate defense and inter-republic affairs. Within those bounds, the Constituent Republics are largely allowed to self-govern, although owing to shared cultural and political backgrounds many of the Republics have similar forms of government, whether through deliberate effort or simple convergence.

Short and formal names Capital Population Notes
 Bluwaald – Allied Bluwaald Municipalities Corvik The only confederal republic, the ABM is loosely governed at the republican level with most actual administration occurring at the municipal level.
 Corvaea – Northern Peoples' Republic Spaal One of four republics where Allamunnic is not the primary language (Corvaean). Initially part of Skraelingia, Kamryk, and Innia, Corvaea was created and granted autonomy following the Great Northern War.
 Dunnmaar – Dunnmaar Autonomous Republic Dunnmaar The smallest (by area) of the Constituent Republics, the DAR consists solely of the Dunnmaar metropolitan area.
 Eona – Free Community of Eona Ubyeu One of the four republics where Allamunnic is not the single most-widely-spoken language (Eonés). Also one of two Republics, alongside Tyrrslynd, to still have a Sarpetic majority, courtesy of the Corsanguine Church.
 Haelynd - Haelynd Democratic Community Haelsburg One of the former South Ottonian republics. Declared independence in March 2022 and was admitted in to the Federation on May 2nd, 2022.
 Innia – Federal Capital District Innsboro Despite not being considered a Constituent Republic under the New Foundation (instead given special status as the "Federal Capital District"), Innia is often grouped with the other CR's due to its home rule government answering only to the Federal government, rather than that of another republic.
 Jormundea – United Jormundsea Republic Udunsfurd Claims (along with Skraelingia) to be the oldest state, having broken away from Tyrrslynd prior to the Wars of Ottonian Unification.
 Kamryk – Kamryk Democratic Republic Kaamburg Kamryk is one of the four primarily non-Allamunnic-speaking republics (the primary language is Kamryker).
 Kanketya - Free Republic of Kanketya Rynnea One of the former South Ottonian republics. Declared independence in March 2022 and was admitted in to the Federation on May 2nd, 2022.
 Meuse - Autonomous Community of Meuse Chambrae One of the former South Ottonian republics. Declared independence in March 2022 and was admitted in to the Federation on May 2nd, 2022.
 Onneria - Onnerian Social Republic Onneria One of the former South Ottonian republics. Declared independence in March 2022 and was admitted in to the Federation on May 2nd, 2022.
 Ostmark – Democratic Republic of Ostmark Aldhuld Just astoundingly boring.
 Skraelingia – Skraeling Free State Skarrsboro One of the four republics in which the primary language is not Allamunnic (Skraeling), as well as being one of the two oldest republics (having broken off from Tyrrslynd in 1852 alongside Jormundea).
 Staalmark - Folk Republik of Staalmark Staalburg One of the former South Ottonian republics. Declared independence in March 2022 and was admitted in to the Federation on May 2nd, 2022.
 Tyrrslynd – People's Republic of Tyrrslynd Koppenhulm The rump of what was once the Kingdom of Tyrrslynd, the People's Republic of Tyrrslynd is the second-smallest of the actual Constituent Republics by land area after Dunnmaar. Tyrrslynd is also one of two republics whose population is majority Sarpetic (Corsanguine Church).
