The Arcer sub-federal political levels are separated into Governorates, which are roughly equivalent to states/provinces in other nations, and special municipalities which are usually large cities (ie.

These special representatives are appointed by the respective legislative assembly of their governorate or municipality, and therefore generally are considered to be subordinate to the federal government's legislative bodies.

Locations
The government has several main buildings, residences, and historical sites that all directly play a major part of Arcerion's day-to-day governance as well as its cultural heritage. Most importantly, the Confederate Parliament Buildings are located at 1 Red Lion Street, in the nation's capital of Kurst. The Prime Minister's Residence however doubles as the State Offices, where Heads of State or Foreign Dignitaries meet, and is located quite close to Parliament to facilitate what historically was a short walk or carriage ride from the residence to Parliament. The original Parliamentary sitting and residences were a now-destroyed building that served as the Crown-Governor's residence, and had a separate wing added in 1795 to accommodate a 12-person Parliament for the new colony. However in 1799 due to the burgeoning first decade of economic growth the Carnish Crown authorized the construction of a dedicated Parliament, and the current buildings were finished in 1811, with a few additions since the 19th Century to accommodate the considerable growth of Arcerion.
Common Arcer Terminology
Governorates and Special Municipalities
The Arcer sub-federal political levels are separated into Governorates, which are roughly equivalent to states/provinces in other nations, and special municipalities which are usually large cities (ie. Kurst Capital Region). Each of these has their own special representatives who report to the Parliament on expenditures, economics, infrastructure, and security affairs. These special representatives are appointed by the respective legislative assembly of their governorate or municipality, and therefore generally are considered to be subordinate to the federal government's legislative bodies. However, for elections, these organizations and bodies serve as their own distinct entities independent of the federal government, and on different schedules and timelines for such events.
Arcerion is split into the following Governorates:
- Moorden Governorate, Southeastern Arcerion;
- Norham Governorate, Western Arcerion;
- Foxhey Governorate, Malentine Sea;
- Northlea Governorate, Northwestern Arcerion;
- Howland Governorate, Arctic Circle.
Governorates have their own provincial-level parliaments, and are headed by a Lieutenant-Governor.
Elections
Elections in Arcerion are held every four years at the federal level, where the country uses a first-past-the-post voting and ballot system. The party with a majority of seats forms the new government. Historically the Ardmori Crown would invite the party with the majority to form a government, however after the Ardmori Civil War the Arcerion Elections Service became the executive function for assigning an electoral victory. The next election in Arcerion is the 2034 Arcerion Federal Election.
