Political divisions of the Allied States

The political units and divisions of the Allied States include:


 * The 9 states are subdivided into counties. The counties may be further subdivided into towns and cities. Unincorporated cities or towns make part of no county and govern themselves only as subordinates to the state.
 * All nine states have mandatory supreme courts, appeal courts and superior courts.


 * The Federal Administrative Center of New Bay City contains the Capitol of the Allied States. The FAC is not a state and is governed by the Mayor and Superintendent of the Federal Administrative Center of New Bay City.
 * The FAC is subject to the New Bay City Superior Court.


 * Territories of the Allied States may be incorporated (states) or unincorporated (Allied Canada and Baja California). These territories do not show as part of the Allied States on any recognized maps, rather have (ASA) suffixed to their names. They have an elected governor and legislatures and enjoy slightly more power than normal states.
 * Allied Canada enjoys the courts it had before becoming part of the Allied States and still operate under British common law. Thus, it is the only territory which may function outside of constitutional authority. The Senate, however, retains complete authority and may act as a Supreme Court of sorts.


 * Special territories (United States Special Territory) are incorporated territories which have requested independence from the Allied States. Although they are still subject to federal authority, they may, among other things, print their own money, control their imports and exports and establish their own constitutions (which remain subject to the Allied States Constitution).
 * The USST has only one special court, the United States Supreme Court, which has one level of authority above any state supreme courts, and is one below the Allied States Courts.
