This article is about the grouping of regions by a Presidential Decree. For the federal constituent units, see Federal subjects of Russia.
The federal districts (Russian: федера́льные округа́, romanized: federalnyye okruga) are groupings of the federal subjects of Russia. Federal districts are not mentioned in the nation's constitution, and do not have competences of their own and do not manage regional affairs. They exist solely to monitor consistency between the federal and regional bodies of law, and ensuring governmental control over the civil service, judiciary, and federal agencies, operating in the regions.[1]
