According to the Constitution of Iraq, the Republic of Iraq is composed of the capital, federal regions, decentralised governorates, as well as local administrations. Article 117 of the constitution recognises Kurdistan Region as a federal region, and as of July 2023, it remains the sole federal region in the country. A number of additional federal regions have been proposed since 2005, such as Basra Region but none are currently in the process of implementation.
