*'''kéarita -''' ''n.'' Translated as "republic", "commonwealth", or "public state", ... Unlike ''republic'', ''kéarita'' connotes neither democracy nor sovereignty. For millennia, it was used exclusively in reference to localised communities, whether city-states or villages, and is used as the official pretitle of many Kiravian states (e.g. [[ | *'''kéarita -''' ''n.''

For millennia, it was used exclusively in reference to localised communities, whether city-states or villages, and is used as the official pretitle of many Kiravian states (e.g. [[Kaviska|Kéarita Kaviska]]). Kirosocialist theorists claimed that a single-party state was the ultimate manifestation of a ''kéarita''.

*'''kirstuv -''' ''n.'' Decision-making body, usually translated as "committee" or "commission", but also "council". Traditionally (as far back as the First Inter-Imperial Period), a ''kirstuv'' was a council of elders governing a Coscivian village or tribe. Later, it came to mean a council that held authority over members of a particular ethnosocial ''tathra'' in a particular area, as well as the governing council of a multiethnic town or village that included representatives of the towns main ''tathræ'' and was responsible for resolving disputes among them. In modern Kiravia, it is the typical name for the legislature of a municipality or countyship, e.g. ''Sarkirstuv Pontevedrá'' ("The [[Pontevedra]] City Commission"). Both traditional and modern ''kirstuvya'' have an odd number of members - usually five, seven, nine, or eleven - to limit the frequency of ties. | *'''kirstuv -''' ''n.''
