The [[Imperial Republic of Shireroth]] is governed through a number of '''subdivisions''', of which the '''Prefecture''' (in the past the '''Duchy''' or '''Imperial Dominion''') is the largest administrative unit. For long, those were often informally referred to as '''''Imperial States'''''. The Prefectures are in most cases further divided in a number of Provinces (which could be locally be referred to as Counties, Circles or Districts). Each territory retains a strong cultural identity, which place them sometimes at odds with central authorities in [[Shirekeep]]. The balance of power between the '''[[Golden Mango Throne|Imperial Government]]''' and the '''regional administrations''' has been a recurring theme in Shireroth’s political history. | |||

The Imperial Republic of Shireroth is governed through a number of subdivisions, of which the Prefecture (in the past the Duchy or Imperial Dominion) is the largest administrative unit. For long, those were often informally referred to as Imperial States. The Prefectures are in most cases further divided in a number of Provinces (which could be locally be referred to as Counties, Circles or Districts). Each territory retains a strong cultural identity, which place them sometimes at odds with central authorities in Shirekeep. The balance of power between the Imperial Government and the regional administrations has been a recurring theme in Shireroth’s political history.

Since the reign of Ayreon V, the structure was streamlined and both Prefects and Governors are appointed by the Throne.

Shireroth counts 23 Prefectures, 1 Protectorate and 95 Provinces in total.

Former subdivisions



Until administrative reforms were introduced in 1742 AN, the Duchies - and later under the name Imperial States and Imperial Dominions - were the largest subdivisions possible. Prior to the Kalirion Fracture, those were divided into Baronies and further into Counties along old feudal lines. They are generally ruled by a Duke. An exception is the Kingdom of Batavia, the protectorates and territories which are ruled directly by the Golden Mango Throne or received a special status. Post-War, a noble title was no longer linked to govern a territory. Instead power over the Prefecture was in hands of a Prefect, while the Provinces were governed by a Governor. Those functions were appointed by the Golden Mango Throne, with nobility as requirement.
