This is just a Administrative breakdown of Xin for anyone that is into that kinda stuff. This will include the manger (EX: count) and the management unit (EX: province)

Firstly the main unit of management in all of Xin is classified as a 'Banner' and is made up of 30 households (Think of it as a small town). A banner is run by a Shi (Equivalent to Yeoman and are attendants to the nobles)

Next comes the Canton which made up of normally 50 banners but can be made up of more then 200. A prefecture is managed by a Nan (Baron)

After a Canton is a Prefecture. A prefecture is managed by a Zi (Viscount)

After a Prefecture comes a province which is a large track of land about the size of Maine in Xin there are 25 provinces. Each Province is managed by a Bo (Count)

After a province comes a Grand Province (Normally just called a region) their are five such Grand Provinces in Xin and each is managed by a Gong (Duke)

Other management units do exist that are excluded from this system they being fiefs and States. A fief is about the size of a Canton and is run by a Wuxia (Samurai like warrior class) a State can be any size and is ruled by a Dragon Prince and would be considered a autonomous region.
