Amestris is a Unitary State, with a Parliamentary Republic type of Government. The government is almost completely centralized by the Military. The Head of State is the Commander-in-Chief of the Military who holds the title of "Führer" and who concentrates the ranks of Head of State and Head of Government. The country was composed by several former nations, quite diverse in culture and religion, but incorporated by the expanding state of Amestris. The administrative regions of the country reflect those differences. The country has five administrative divisions: South Area, West Area, North Area, East Area and Central Area.
