Etymology
The name of Extrangia came after the former states of Asterspealt, Hirúndastan, Diaválistan, Koskariad and Aštiastan used to call the land out their own country, Iskrnstaadts (lit. outside countries), and the foreigners, Iskrnstaadten (lit. from the outside countries). When the Spanish conquerors arrived, called the natives extranjeros (foreigners) and their language; extranjés. After the independence of the country from Spain and England, it became Extrangia in Spanish and English and Extránghia in the native people's language, now called Extrangian.

Administrative divisions
Extrangia is a Staadtensřespúblika, a federal republic made by 5 free and sovereign nations, called Sazenderstaadts, which form a union that exercises a degree of jurisdiction over the Staadtensaldran; the federal city of Astervek, is a special political division that belongs to the federation as a whole and not to a particular nation, and as such, has more limited local rule than the nations' states.

Each Sazenderstaadts (federated nation), has its own constitution, congress, and a judiciary, and its citizens elect by direct voting a governor for a six-year term, and representatives to their respective unicameral state congresses for three-year terms. The federated nations are divided into an Aldranlander, the nations' capital city-states, and Landers, or states, and then, into Řajons, or regions; the smallest administrative political entity in the country, governed by a mayor, elected by its residents by plurality.
