List of zones of Ethiopia

The regions of Ethiopia are administratively divided into 68 or more zones (Amharic: ዞን^?, zonə). The exact number of zones is unclear, as the names and number of zones given in documents by Ethiopia's Central Statistical Agency differ between 2005 and 2007. Various maps give different zone names and boundaries.
