  • A state of the United States of Europe is one of 69 political entities that shares its sovereignty with the federal government of the United States of Europe. Each citizen is subject to both federal law and the law of their respective state, this means that in effect every citizen is a citizen of the USE and the state in which they primarily reside. Most states are divided into regions, many of which have their own system of local government. The state has numerous responsibilities, these include healthcare, education, transport, infrastructure and public safety (controlling crime), as well as matters including culture and language. However, the there is a series of laws in the Constitution that are designed not to give too much power to individual state governments, and likewise for the federal government over states. New states can be created when new countries enter the Treaty of Rotterdam, and therefore the United States of Europe (As Croatia did in 2104) or if the Senate finds that for whatever reason a state needs to be divided. Under the constitution, states cannot secede from the Union unless their country exits the Treaty of Rotterdam.
