Sorin Cosoveanu has provided me with some documentation about changes in Equatorial Guinea. A new city,
Oyala, has been built as a future capital. Its name has been changed to Djibloho. And now it has been
split from Añisok district as a new district, and simultaneously made a new province, split from Wele-Nzas
province, both named Djibloho. Source [4] says that Djibloho province has two urban districts: Oyala and
Mbere. I have changed the HASC code for Wele-Nzas province, and for all its districts correspondingly.
Equatorial Guinea is divided into eight provinces, which are further divided into thirty-one districts. In 1994, there were only
seventeen districts. They can be located on this
page , apparently an
official government website, with links to seven province pages with maps showing the division of the provinces into districts.
This PDF document
from Marathon Petroleum has a map of the whole country showing the same division into districts (page 12). I haven't been able
to find any maps of the thirty districts yet.
