Provincial level divisions are the highest level administrative divisions of [[Caphiria]]. There are two types of provinces - standard provinces (''Banlieueregio''), which refers to the mainland territory, and possessions, which refers to any major territory outside of that. The government of each standard province (''provinciarum'') is led by its ''praetor'', who is elected from the citizens of the respective province. Standard provinces hold legal and administrative jurisdiction within its bounds and share "[[parallel autonomy]]" with the central government.

Only by majority vote from [[Senate (Caphiria)|the Senate]] can provinces be formed or dissolved; not even the Imperator has the (legal) unilateral authority to admit a province into the Imperium.

[[Provinces of Caphiria|Standard provinces]], simply called provinces, are headed by an elected official called a ''praetor'' who serves as its chief executive. The government of the province is called the ''provinciarum'', holding legal and administrative jurisdiction within its bounds.


Provinces receive their power and authority from the [[Constitution of Caphiria]], which delineates the admission of provinces, the concept of 'parallel autonomy', and the governance of provinces. Parallel autonomy refers to the unique relationship in which provinces - and by extension the provincial government - are administered directly by the Imperator, who passes autonomy to them through his ''imperium maius''. This means that provinces have their own sovereignty that is separate from the Imperium yet they are directly controlled by it

Municipalities are the backbone of local governance and community development in Caphiria. Their proximity to citizens and their deep understanding of local needs enable them to provide tailored services and initiatives that directly impact the lives of residents. By addressing issues such as infrastructure development, social welfare, education, and healthcare at the grassroots level, municipalities contribute to the well-being and prosperity of their communities. Through their self-governing scope of activities, municipalities encourage citizen engagement and participation in decision-making processes. Local councils provide platforms for citizens to voice their concerns, suggest improvements, and actively contribute to the development of their municipalities. This participatory approach fosters a sense of ownership and collective responsibility among citizens, strengthening the social fabric of communities. Municipalities also serve as key drivers of local economic development. By promoting investment, supporting small businesses, and fostering local entrepreneurship, municipalities create opportunities for job creation and economic growth. They play a vital role in attracting investments, implementing local economic development plans, and supporting initiatives that enhance the quality of life for residents.

== The Ternominal System ==
The Ternominal System (Caphiric Latin: ''Ternominia''), also recognized as the Caphiric Coding System for Administrative Divisions, is the standardized convention employed across Caphiria to denote its provinces, prefectures, and municipalities. The system utilizes alphabetic and numeric elements to represent informative identifiers at each of the three administrative levels. There are three codes/identifiers: the Provincial Number, Prefectural Code, and Municipal Code.
 
Each province is given a number 10-99, which becomes their provincial number. The first four letters of the province are appended to the number, and can also be used interchangeably. As an example, the province of [[Narico]] is labelled NARI and its number is 27. Therefore its provincial number is NARI27.
 
For Prefectures, the code begins with the initial two letters of its name, followed by two digits. These digits must be a multiple of the province number it is located within. Perlatini Prefecture in NARI27 might be labeled as PE81.
 
Municipal codes are the most intricate of the Ternominal System. They start with the prefectural code and then append an alphabetic character (A/B/C/D/X). This is followed by a three-digit code known as the municipal number.
 
The first digit of the municipal number marks the geographical zone. These include: 0 for central region, 1 for northern region, 2 for eastern, 3 for southern, 4 for western regions, and 5-9 reserved for specialized zones or regions. The second digit pinpoints areas based on their historical significance, with 0-4 representing areas of pronounced historical significance and 5-9 for areas with diminished or absent historical significance. The third digit gauges municipalities by their land area or population. Larger municipalities get 0-4 and smaller municipalities get 5-9. The municipal code for [[Castra Osaniovo]] is PE81-X343.
