And the list of subjects of the Russian Federation will be presented below in the order in which they are specified in the Constitution of the Russian Federation.
History
Our country is the legal successor of the Soviet Union. With a few exceptions, the former names of cities and regions have been preserved. However, the administrative device has changed. There were subjects with new statuses. Each of them has its own administrative center. The capitals of the subjects of the Russian Federation, the list of which we will list, will also be indicated.
Until 2014, Russia was composed of 83 constituent entities of the Russian Federation. The list and names of the last few times changed. To date, they are already eighty-five. We joined the Republic of Crimea and the city of federal significance Sevastopol.
These subjects of the Russian Federation have added to the list of 2014. True, the sovereignty over them of the Russian Federation has not yet been recognized by all countries of the world. And in 1993, when the Constitution was adopted, our country was divided into eighty-nine subjects. Then the so-called liquidation of national autonomies began. It lasted from 2003 to 2007. During this time, six autonomous ogrugov were abolished.
General Provisions
So, our country is divided into 85 subjects - administrative-territorial units. Their names, status and rights are enshrined in Article 65 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation. Subjects can adopt their laws and other regulations, but they should not contradict federal laws. Also, administrative-territorial units are allowed to have their own constitutions and charters. The latter depends on the legal status of the region.
Only the republic can have its own constitution. All other regions accept the statutes. In general, there are several types of subjects in the Russian Federation . These are the republics mentioned above, there are twenty-two of them.
In addition, our country includes forty-six provinces, nine territories, four autonomous regions, three cities of federal significance (St. Petersburg, Sevastopol and Moscow) and one autonomous region. And regardless of the status of the subject, all regions are equal in rights and can not leave the Russian Federation on their own initiative. Law No. 6-FKZ permits the entry of new territories into the Russian Federation. In this case, new subjects will be formed. The basis for entry into the Russian Federation can be the expression of the will of the peoples residing in the new territories.
