Provincial and Regional Governments of Candanadium
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OF THE KINGDOM OF CANDANADIUM
BUNDESREGIERUNG DES KÖNIGREICHS KANDANADIUM
The Provincial and Regional Governments - Oseanian Edition
Each province or region has its own charter/constitution and government, which includes executive, legislative, and judicial branches. While the federal government is responsible for federal budgeting, foreign affairs, federal social policy, defence, federal tax collection, and so on, the provincial and regional governments are responsible for local matters such as local social policy, healthcare, social security, and so on. If a province's official languages do not include both federal official languages, it does not mean that provincial services are not offered in that language, rather that they are offered only on demand or only in specific locations.
Each province or region has a Governor-General or equivalent position, who is the official head of the province as a representative of the Crown. Some provinces and regions may also choose to have a separate Head of Government. All provinces and territories have a democratically elected government.
The following abbreviations are used for ceremonial titles:
HE - His/Her Excellency
The Rt. Hon. - The Right Honourable
The Hon. - The Honourable

Note: Both autonomous regional legislatures in Candanadium are unicameral. The Prince of Belkhomir is a landed prince, or Fürst, but swears fealty to the King of Belkhomir (also the King of Candanadium) as his viceregal representative and thus has no sovereign powers over Belkhomir except when acting in the King's name. The full title of the President of Caskhomir is the President of the Congress of Caskhomir.
