Copyrights are regulated by federal governments; in the US it is overseen by the Copyright Office, a part of the Library on Congress. Internationally, copyright treaties are overseen by the World Intellectual Property Organization.

Copyrights are granted by congress for a period of 25 years?

No, US copyrights are currently valid for 95 years from date of creation by a company employee (or other works made for hire) or for 70 years after the death of an individual author. Prior to 1978, copyrights were granted for 95 years from date of publication, provided there was an adequate notice of copyright. If published prior to 1963, a renewal registration was required at 28 years. Prior to 1923, copyright was for 14 years with a renewal possible for another 14 years. At no point was US copyright granted for 25 years.
