An organization that governs the people living in a particular geographical region or aggregate of geographical regions. The geographical region it governs can change over time (such as the westward expansion of the United States and the addition of Hawaii) In some cases, geopolitical entities possess uninhabited geographical regions. However, it is that case that it controls the movement of people in and out of those regions, and its laws apply to those regions.
