The Confederacy consists of three confederate units known as ''Republics''. Unlike many other confederate and federate states, each of the republics is numbered rather than named for the place or people it encompasses. Accordingly, the ''First Republic'' encompasses the lands of the Great Chenango people, the ''Second Republic'' of the Little Chenango people, and the ''Third Republic'' of the Island Honeoye. The Republics are largely free to determine their own form of government and how it functions.

The First Republic and Third Republics share the same form of government which is based on the model of the [[Government_of_Urcea#Province|Urcean province]] except with unicameral rather than bicameral legislatures that elect the Republic's chief executive, in each case referred to as the "Republican Executive". The unicameral legislature for both the First and Third Republics are simply referred to as the "Republican Constituent Assembly", which assigns its own electoral districts on a decade-by-decade basis. Republican Executives are typically chosen by heritage rather than by political party within the First and Third Republics, with relatives typically succeeding along clan or tribal basis. In both of these Republics, terms for the legislature are five years along [[Urcea|Urcean]] lines; the Republican Executive serves at the confidence of the legislature.
