Administrative regions Explain your nation's claim system, and the various types of constituencies your nation may have, for example, the difference between a district and a territory. It is preferred that you do not discuss each constituency in this section. Instead, the names of each constituency in the table should be linked to their own separate articles. You can add and remove columns as you wish, but generally, include fields for the flags (which should be kept small, at most 100px wide (less if more rows listed) and have a border), name, and important fields such as area, population, governor and/or representative (or equivalent position). You do not need to include a column for a seal, flag, or coat of arms for each constituency if it they do not have one.

This is an example of a picture in your article. Pictures make an article look a lot better, more informative and more interesting. Ideally, images should not be larger than 200 pixels in width. Use this section to write about the flora, fauna, terrain, climate, weather, and location of your micronation. A good template for listing annual temperature data is
