Xagħra, officially the Xagħra Territory of Melite, is a rural incorporated, unorganized territory of the Democratic Christian Federation of Melite. It is located 850m east of the Dominica Autonomous City to which it is subordinated to and 5.6km away from Paloman Melita.


Government

Xagħra is an incorporated, unorganized territory, meaning it is legislated by Melitian law but not administered by its own civil government. The territory is subordinated to the Autonomous City[b], despite the territory having no governmental organization as the area is a rural uninhabited field. The only legistation regarding Xagħra in Melitian law is 9/2022 Act on Xagħra Territory, 2022.[1] Its status is similar to that of Palmyra Atoll, USA.
