Subdivisions

Myanmar (Burma) is divided into 14 administrative subdivisions, which include 7 states (pyi-neh) and 7 divisions (taing). The names of divisions (except for Ayeyarwady Division and Tanintharyi Division) are also the names of their capital cities. The country's subdivisions can be described as ethnically-divided: divisions are Bamar-dominant, while states are ethnic minority-dominant. The 14 subdivisions are divided into districts, which in turn are divided into townships that consist of towns, wards villages.
