Introduction
Karantania (Slovenian: Karantanija) is a special administrative region inside the Socialist Federal Republic of Acadame North. Karantania is unique because it is the only administrative region in Acadame North that is autonomous in many ways, including a separate leader and representation inside the Acadame North Federal People's Assembly.
History and Background
Karantania, was originally apart of the Socialist Federation of Koroska but when it split in 2003, Acadame North gave the zone a special privilege. Unlike the Socialist Federal Republic of Acadame North, the Commonwealth of Karantania runs on parliamentary democracy.
On November 30 2006, an agreement was reached at the Kirov Conference between Karantania, Acadame North and Korolev that Karantania would be jointly governed by the two states.
Independence
Karantania was granted "special Independence" from Acadame North during reforms. The territory borders Acadame North to the south. Karantania is about a tenth of the size of Acadame North.
Government
The Commonwealth of Karantania is run by a Premier who is appointed by the President of Acadame North. Karantania is free to pass legislation. Health Care and Internal Security is taken care of by Acadame North and Finance and development are taken care of by the UNAM.
