Both the [[Privy council of Rumahoki|national]] and state governments are structured in a similar manner. Each have a {{wp|bicameralism|bicameral legislature}} consisting of a popularly-elected lower house and an indirectly-elected upper house, and a parliamentary-based system (though whether or not it's more dominant than the executive depends on the state). This is a far cry from the more {{wp|unitary state|centralised}} form of government the pre-1994 [[Delepasian Commonwealth]] had, of which the final remnant lies in the [[Education in Rumahoki|education system]] which remains highly centralised to this day.

All the states, autonomous islands, and federal district are further subdivided into provinces (states), counties (autonomous islands), and boroughs (federal district). These are then divided into four hundred parishes (states), collectivities (autonomous islands), and districts (federal district) the total for each state determines the amount of seats in the [[Congress of the Commons]] that are apportioned to each state. Beneath these are the municipalities (states), grouped settlements (autonomous islands), and neighbourhoods (federal district). Overall, these second-, third-. and fourth-level divisions each have their own authorities and responsibilities.

In the name of developing a better understanding of both the geography of the nation as well as its cultural heritage, maps have been made depicting the cultural areas of the nation as well as maps depicting the geographical divisions. The former is used by the [[Rumahokian Bureau of Statistics and Censuses]] to categorise the states based on a common geography while the latter has been used by [[cultural institutions (Rumahoki)|cultural institutions]] to foster the awareness and preservation of the cultural heritage of the nation. Otherwise, neither of these two designations carry no authority nor responsibility in of themselves beyond serving as a reference point.

The [[Tainean Area]] is the second-largest, encompassing 311,683.44 square kilometers (120,341.65 sq mi) across the states of [[Ibimini]], [[Inaua]], and [[Kauabimini]]. This, asides from [[Arona]], constitute as the only two countries on [[Vallos]] where the [[Taineans|Tainean people]] make up not only an absolute majority, but are also major strongholds of the Tainean culture and the Tainean language, specifically [[Brenadine Tainean|Reform Tainean]]. In Rumahoki, Reform Tainean carries some [[Burgoignesc language|Burgoignesc]] influences and innovations even as the [[Tainean Linguistic Academy]] takes the language through a process of [[re-Taineanisation]].

The [[Loa Area]] is the third-largest, encompassing square kilometers 240,244.27 (92,758.83 sq mi) across the states of Junu'urinia Ba'andasi-Navidadia, [[Kalanatoa]], and [[Na'aturie]]. This area was historically a part of the [[Loa Empire]] until its collapse in [[1875]]. The [[Loa people|Loa]] make up the vast majority of people in this area, and all of them practice a {{wp|religious syncretism|syncretic faith}} known as [[Marian Kapuhenasa]], combining elements of Loa [[Kapuhenasa]] with Delepasian Catholicism. This cultural area also boasts having the highest amount of women in public office as well as in ecclesiastical posts, a result of the matriarchal culture of the Loa.

The [[Cartadanian Area]] is the smallest of the cultural areas, encompassing 39,453.60 square kilometers (15,233.12 sq mi) across the state of [[Portas Gemeas]] and the autonomous island of [[Trescolinia]]. Both the [[Cartadanians|Cartadanian people]] and the [[Cartadanian language]] are dominant in this cultural area. The culture here has some Tainean influences, given its close proximity to the Tainean Area, as well as maritime overtones due to it being on a coastal area as well as its [[Vallos#Piratocracies|history with pirates]].

The geographical divisions of Rumahoki are designated and used by the [[Rumahokian Bureau of Statistics and Censuses]] for statistical purposes in data collection and analysis. These divisions are grouped based on a common geography regardless of culture, usually using a river or a mountain as boundaries with the idea being that those natural features have more often than not determined the demographics of a given area even to the present. There exists seven geographical divisions: [[Los Rumas (geographical area)|Los Rumas]] (LR; Loru) (Rosaria, Bahia, New Isuria, Valio, and the Federal District), [[Lago Delepas (geographical area)|Lago Delepas]] (LD; Lade) (Lagocia, and Junu'urinia Ba'andasi-Navidadia), [[Tierra Loa]] (TL; Tilo) (Kalanatoa, and Na'aturie), [[New Rumas]] (NR; Neru) (Rio Solo, and Homberia), [[Trillizos del Sur]] (TDS; Tridesu) (Rios Gemelos, Auxana, and Terregran), [[Gemelos del Norte]] (GDN; Gedeno) (Ibimini, and Kauabimini), and [[Norte Maritimo]] (NM; Noma) (Inaua, Portas Gemeas, and Trescolinia). Other than statistics, the geographical divisions have no further authority nor any additional responsibilities.

==Second-level divisions==
==Second-level divisions==
The highest tier of sub-national division for the nineteen first-level divisions are the provinces, the counties, and the boroughs, respectively the primary divisions of the states, the autonomous islands, and the federal district, all designated as "a collection of collectivities subordinate to their respective home regions" and as such any boundary changes to these sub-divisions are the responsibility of the legislators to their home regions. As Rumahoki is committed to federalism, these sub-divisions are allocated {{wp|devolved}} powers alongside their secondary purpose for state-wide statistics.
The main governing bodies of these sub-divisions are the [[Deputy council|deputy councils]] whose members are indirectly elected (i.e. appointed) by the councils of their subordinate regions (the third-level divisions). The deputy councils coordinate with and provide assistance to the lower levels in ensuring that the necessary services provided by the state are acceptable in the eyes of the national inspectors, people who conduct surprise thorough investigations in behalf of the national government to weed out regional corruption and areas in need of attention (such as underdeveloped villages or a lack of up-to-code infrastructure).
