I know that there is a list of representatives for my country, and that is comparatively easy to find.

But how do I find the one that is actually there for my sub-sub-sub region? Like: who is the most specific?

Or is it just like this: “Congratulations, here are the representatives of your country. Please do everything else yourself.”

Phrasing it differently: how hard (easy?) is it to participate in democracy, aside from voting?

    Usually the MEPs aren’t really assigned to a region, but to a topic. For the national parliament, depending on voting system, you will still have local representatives. I would look up what your representatives are and then check what work groups they participate in and what most fits your issue. ( You can do that here)
