Editing Federal district (section)

==== Russia ====
[[Russia]] has [[Federal cities of Russia|three cities of federal importance]], established by the Constitution — [[Moscow]] and [[Saint Petersburg]]; it also claims [[Sevastopol]] as such (which is internationally recognised as part of Ukraine, occupied by Russia). Each city is treated as a separate federal subject and has its own legislative body. Russia has [[federal districts of Russia|federal districts]], but these form an additional administrative layer between the federation government and the federal subjects rather than being a distinct type of jurisdiction.
