September, 2012

Changes affecting status:

1. Italy: Four provinces will be eliminated in 2013, and many more later.
2. Uganda: Thirty-two new districts were created, as reported here in 2010. I finally have enough information to list them.
3. Zambia: There is a new province named Muchinga.

Other data added:

1. Historical updates ca. 1975 in Romania.
2. Kiribati: Added populations from the 2010 census.
3. Spain: Official names of three provinces will be in Basque.
4. Venezuela: There is a new island territory, but it may not be a division.

Secondary divisions:

1. Oman: Al Qabil had been placed in the wrong governorate. Correcting the error also affects the populations of two governorates.
2. Zambia: Took the formation of Muchinga into account.

General:

1. Removed "All rights reserved," which is no longer of any legal value.
