Districts of Gerenia
In Gerenia, a district is a political and geographical subdivision of a province. Gerenia currently has 34 districts.
History
Districts were the earliest subdivisions established in Gerenia (even prior to provinces), at the time of the Gerenian settlement in Apollonia. At a beginning, districts were geographic entities only, composed of the lands granted to each person or clan. Later, with the construction of cities, districts evolved into administrative units.
During the last three months of 2012, the already existent provinces were divided into both districts and counties, now having their own governments.
District government and organisation
Districts are governed by a District Governor, appointed by the Province Governor. Each district has a capital city, where the Governor resides.
Districts provide some services, including courts, public utilities, libraries, hospitals, parks, roads, and law enforcement. There is a district Mihegtör ("recorder") who collects vital statistics and processes certificates of births, deaths, marriages, and dissolutions.
Districts are further subdivided into municipalities.
