Democratic Republic of Congo Administrative Zones

Administrative Zones of the Democratic Republic of Congo (Congo Kinshasa)

When the Congo was reorganized from 11 divisions to 26, many of the administrative zones changed provinces. I have updated their HASC codes to reflect the new situation.

According to Congonline, the Democratic Republic of Congo is divided into eleven regions, or provinces, including the city of Kinshasa. The regions are subdivided into sous-régions (sub-regions), which are divided into administrative zones, which are further divided into collectivités (collectivities). Each collectivity contains groupements (groupings), which, in turn, contain numerous villages. Here is a map of the administrative zones of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Here is another map , this one from ReliefWeb.
