Regions of Delvera

Regions of the Grand Republic of Delvera are divided into four categories: Provinces, Territories, Dependencies, and Military Districts. Special regions such as the Protectorate may also be created by the government.

Provinces
Provinces are essentially sovereign nations with equal status that have agreed to unite under the national government. As a Confederal Republic, the central government has extremely limited authority over individual Provinces, which are free to leave the nation at will.

Current Provinces Ozarkana (since 29 May 2013) (1st) North American Confederation (since 28 July 2018) (9th)

Historic Provinces Altaria (29 May 2013 - 25 May 2014) (2nd) Avannia (29 May 2013 - 10 May 2016) (3rd) "Pandoria" (29 May 2013 - 15 June 2013) (4th) Colo (6 June 2015 - 21 September 2016) (5th) Germanija/Norden (26 July 2015 - 28 June 2016) (6th) Neosho (22 October 2016 - 6 May 2020) (7th) Macedoniska (3 March 2018 - 23 March 2018) (8th) West Springfield/Wilson Hills (5 November 2018 - ) (10th)

Territories
Territories are semi-autonomous “proto-Provinces” that are overseen by a “guardian” Province. Territories have fewer requirements for entry than Provinces, and a region that has been a Territory may become a Province through an easier legal process. However, Territories have more limited rights, lacking a vote in the Chamber of Deputies and many powers held by Provinces.

Historic Territories Zancudo (8 August 2013 - 28 January 2018) (1st) Avannia (10 May 2016 - 16 September 2016) (2nd) Colo (21 September 2016 - 22 July 2018) (3rd) Heremus (21 March 2018 - 9 September 2019) (4th) Naligtas (16 September 2018 - 9 September 2019) (5th)

Dependencies
Dependencies are temporary holdings that are either new micronations seeking guidance and protection as they develop initially or existing micronations that are undergoing a period of transition and formally petition the Delveran government for assistance. A Dependency signs a treaty with the national government that expires after a set period of time, at which time the signatory will be fully sovereign again.

Former Dependencies Democratic Republic of Doronis (21 March 2016 - 12 April 2016)

Military Districts
Military Districts are regions that act as headquarters for logistical and administrative functions of the DAS, and are administered by military officers. District Administrators are appointed by Delveran High Command. Districts are considered sovereign Delveran soil and all of their inhabitants are Delveran citizens.

Current Military Districts

Historic Military Districts Neosho (22 December 2015 - 22 October 2016) (1st) Norden (28 June 2016 - 23 September 2016, 29 December 2016 - 1 June 2017) (2nd)

Colonies
Colonies are regions that are created by the Consul or the Chamber for a specific purpose, namely the exploitation of resources at the discretion of citizens. As such, colonies function largely as economic regions. They have no confederal representation and may be dissolved by the Consul or Chamber.

Current Colonies

Historic Colonies Chapuline (31 December 2016 - 15 April 2017) (1st) Aerepro (18 February 2017 - 4 April 2017) (2nd) Rusalka/Macedoniska (2 September 2017 - 3 March 2018) (3rd)

The Protectorate
Main Article: Republican Military Protectorate The Republican Military Protectorate had a special relationship with the Grand Republic. It had full autonomy, but allowed the DAS unrestricted access to conduct military training in exchange for protection from foreign forces. The RMP was administered by a Delveran citizen, the Chief Director, and was composed of five operational districts. The Protectorate was dissolved and annexed to Lavrasia in 2017.
