Military District (Draconis Combine)
Sarna News
Depending on the point in history, the Draconis Combine is divided into anywhere between three and five Military Districts, these are usually named after the capitol world of each region. There are both Military Districts and Government Districts. While the names are the same and the areas they control are nearly identical, there are occasional territorial differences between the two. This structure continues down to the prefecture level, each of which has a military and a civilian leader. The civilian leader (a Duke) generally deals with the actual minutiae of administration, while the military leader (a Tai-shu or Tai-sho) makes the executive decisions.
No matter the position, a regional leader has the authority to rule as he or she sees fit, so long as no decrees from a higher-up are controverted. Of course, regional leaders must also interpret and carry out the orders of the Coordinator as best they can.
