Alexandria, like many states in Cartadania, is divided into counties, a system established in the colonial era by Caphiria. The 117 counties are spread across six regions, each with its own unique history and geography. Some counties bear the names of notable figures in Cartadanian history, while others reflect their distinct physical features. Each county in Alexandria has its own elected legislative branch, known as the Board of Supervisors, which also exercises executive authority in the county. These county boards enjoy a significant degree of autonomy, as enshrined in Alexandria's constitution. Under the principle of "home rule" authority, they have the power to pass legislation within their county, much like cities. | Alexandria, like many states in Cartadania, is divided into counties, a system established in the colonial era by Caphiria.
