  List of republics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Unitary republics are unitary states which are governed constitutionally as one single unit, with a single constitutionally created legislature.
A constitutional republic is a state where the head of state and other officials are elected as representatives of the people and whose power is limited by constitution which protects individual liberty from being violated by the majority of the people or by government officials.
Federal republics are federal states in which the administrative divisions (states or provinces) retain a degree of autonomy which is constitutionally protected, and cannot be revoked unilaterally by the national government.

 Republics of Russia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Republics differ from other federal subjects in that they have the right to establish their own official language (Article 68 of the Constitution of Russia) and have their own constitution.
After the dissolution of the USSR, each "autonomous republic" was succeeded by a republic with a similar name (or, in the case of the Chechen-Ingush ASSR, by two republics: Chechnya and Ingushetia).
Although they indeed are autonomous and are republics, the use of this term is not technically correct, since their official names, as per 1993 Russian Constitution and their own constitutions, are simply "republic", rather than "autonomous republic".

 BACK TO THE REPUBLIC Before it's too late
The terms republic and democracy are thoughtlessly and inaccurately used almost synonomously in dictionaries, in encyclopedias and in political literature and discussion.
