Spanish term or phrase: régimen paralelo
Contexto: Lo que es algo sobradamente conocido y más que acreditado es que en (nombre de la ciudad) se instaló durante un largo tiempo un régimen paralelo.

La verdad es que estoy haciendo la traducción al árabe pero agradezco mucho su ayuda para este término en inglés.

Gracias a todo@s.

Only your text would define what type of "regime" they are referring to. I have no way of knowing. The phrase "parallel regime" implies that a program or regime of similar or common qualities was also installed in city XXX. This is what I understand with the little context given. I hope this helps.
