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.
Subdivisions
- See also: 1715 Shireroth census
The Imperial States are in turn divided in a larger number of smaller, easier to rule, subdivisions. Depending on the State, these second-level were originally subdivisions governed by Counts, Barons,... according to the feudal ways of the past, or by governors who were - or were not - appointed or even elected by the people or local assemblies. 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.
