Regions of Saremia

The 7 regions of Saremia are the member states of the Federal Kingdom of Saremia. Each region was a fully sovereign state with its own borders, army and currency before the French colonization of the territory. After the independence of Saremia, the regions united to form the Federal Kingdom of Saremia.

Constitution
Each region has its own constitution, legislature, government and courts. Most of the regions' legislatures are unicameral parliaments, their size varying between 60 and 140 seats. The regional governments consist of either five or seven members, depending on the region. The Saremian Federal Constitution declares the regions to be sovereign to the extent their sovereignty is not limited by federal law. The regions also retain all powers and competencies not delegated to the Federal Kingdom by the Constitution. Most significantly, the regions are responsible for healthcare, welfare, law enforcement and public education; they also retain the power of taxation. The regional constitutions determine the degree of autonomy accorded to the municipalities, which varies but almost always includes the power to levy taxes and pass municipal laws. The sizes of the regions vary from 120 km² to 7,045 km²; the populations vary from 25,471 to 2,244,400.
