Background[edit | edit source]

The Russian Democratic Federative Republic is very decentralized, especially in the area of law enforcement. The Police Power in Russia, especially as it relates to the Peace, Order, and Good Government of the Russian Democratic Federative Republic, and the Public Health, Safety, Welfare, and Morals of the same, is, for the most part, vested exclusively in the 64 federated Republics that compose the RDFR. The Republics possess exclusive investigative and prosecutorial jurisdiction over the vast majority of criminal offenses; while the Federation-level law enforcement (the Federal Police Service) has jurisdiction over a very small number of criminal offenses, most of which involve some form of inter-Republic dimension (e.g., counterfeiting of money and securities, human smuggling across Republic boundaries, copyright infringement and other intellectual property crimes, terrorism and terrorism conspiracies spanning multiple Republics, some financial crimes that span across multiple Republics, child pornography spanning across multiple Republics, postal crimes, maritime crimes, war crimes, and offenses against international law).
