The articles of union provided that the new republic would be governed by the constitution of Tanganyika pending the adoption of a new constitution. Zanzibar would retain a separate executive and legislature to handle domestic affairs. but national matters--external affairs. defense. immigration. trade. customs. taxes. and police powerswould be dealt with exclusively by the executive and parliament of the United Republic.
