Regions
The Commonwealth is divided into ten Counties, each of which retains a certain degree of autonomy. This harks back to the original ten states which combined to form the Commonwealth (see above). Each County elects it's own local assembly which governs matters of immediate interest to the inhabitants. Power is also devolved to the Counties in relation to internal trade, low-level taxation, and education, although all local matters are subject to the overall control of the National Government.
The list of Counties, and a brief description of each follows;
Attica; The most central County, and the location of the National Capital, also known as Attica. The County Capital is Marathon.
New Devon; The County Capital, Kingstown, is the location of the Commonwealth's oldest and most prestigious University, the University College of Kingstown.
Corcaigh; Originally founded by Irish immigrants, Corcaigh is the smallest of the mainland Counties. Frequently at odds with central government, the County has made attempts to seceed in the past, and a majority of the population still use Gaelic as their first language. The region itself has suffered from under-investment in recent years, and is one of the poorest Counties. It is, however, one of the most beautiful regions in the Commonwealth. The County Capital is Tara.
