Lebanon is divided into six governorates (mohaafazaat, Arabic: محافظات —;singular mohafazah, Arabic: محافظة).
The governorates are further subdivided into twenty-five districts (aqdya—singular: qadaa).[1]
The districts themselves are divided into municipalities (nahiyah), each enclosing a group of cities or villages.
