Administrative divisions of Magisteria

The United Magisterian Socialist People's Republics is an asymmetrical federation consisting of five socialist people's republics, 67 federal socialist states, 3 autonomous federal socialist states, 16 federal provinces, and the Federal Capital Territory (Annesia City, the capital of Magisteria). Article 3 of the 1947 Constitution, which was retained in the 1994 Constitution, empowers socialist people's republics and autonomous federal socialist states to wield all governmental functions not assigned to the federal government. SPRs and AFSSs have their own constitutions and directorial governments, and SPRs and AFSSs, as well as their citizens, are represented in the National People's Assembly. Each SPR is represented by 85 delegates, while each AFSS is represented by 25 delegates. However, the 67 federal socialist states and the Federal Capital Territory do not have delegates in the National People's Assembly.

The largest socialist people's republic by population is the Glendrissaigese SPR, with a population of 74,614,512, while the smallest is the Cantalian SPR, with a population of 25,904,585. Further decentralization of the federal state resulted from constitutional reforms in the 1970s and 1980s, resulting in a four-tiered federation: the contemporary "socialist people's republics," the "autonomous federal socialist states," the "federal socialist states," and the federal provinces, a compromise designed to minimize linguistic, cultural, social, and economic tensions.

Schematic overview
This is a schematic overview of the basic federal structure of Magisteria as defined by Article 1 of the Magisterian Constitution.

Each republic and autonomous federal socialist state has its own 10-member legislature and collective government. Federal socialist states are administered by an FSS President, whereas federal provinces are ruled by the FSS President of the federal socialist state in which that federal province is located.
