[edit] Things to include

  • You'll want to break down which offices are elected and appointed. If there are a lot of position in a state then you could also make charts according to the level of government, for example ==Schools==.
  • To find out the history of the formation of the state you can check sites like City-Data or even Wikipedia. Make sure that the information is focused on the creation of local government, not statewide or national.
  • Find some external links for your page. The best idea is to do a google search/google news search for "STATE local government." If you run into any historical or notable information on past events for local government functions in the google news I would think about including it under the "History" section.
