List of Lashardian provinces

The **provinces of Lashardia** (Lashardian: *Helveticilasda*), have two distinct definitions. Lashardia has eleven modern provinces since the 2017 reorganization, each with a capital city and provincial government. Previously there were only six modern provinces. There are also twenty-three historic provinces that serve no function except for historical and cultural identification in the modern-day.

The modern-day provinces consist of, in alphabetical order: Dayasland, Gaiasland, Jurgensland, Leilasland, Mortasland, Nortensland, Olegsland, Palsland, Pietsland, Sabinasland, and Skaarsland. The capital city Ubenmoor, is occasionally considered the unofficial "twelfth province", as it largely functions as its own province. The six-province-system was created upon Lashardia's independence in 1899. In 2017, under Presidents Olla Ottöfrenz and Anya Hanköfork, a provincial reorganization occurred, creating eleven provinces.

The historic provinces consist of the twenty-three provinces which acted as administrative divisions while Lashardia was under the Kingdom of Titova. Currently, they are not of political importance and are rather a sense of cultural pride and identity. Lashardian nobility are often given titles in reference to the historic provinces, such as Princess Karla, Duchess of Övland.
