And the NCR is the only confirmed actual functional government in the world of fallout.

More seriously though, that depends a lot on how you define functional government. A lot of city states exist in both the northeast and southwest, with functional governments/democracies and the ability to project their influence beyond the walls of their city. It's a bit more like the political climate of the dark ages.

The NCR is probably the biggest state with the widest reach, but at the full extent of the territory they claim, they have virtually no ability to project power. So it's more like they can claim it's theirs, and as long as nobody disputes it, it's basically true.
