Großgermania is a federal empire divided into six constituent countries, as well as one autonomous territory. The term region is often used synonymously with constituent country. Four of the countries are absolute monarchies (Germany, Denmark, Luxembourg, and Liechtenstein) and two of them, Helvetica and Alsace-Lorraine, are established as free lands (gebiete) with a republican government. The Kanarische Inseln, while separate from all other countries, are considered an Autonomous Imperial Territory, and therefore are not considered a constituent country.
