Administrative divisions of Romania

Romania's administration is relatively centralised and administrative subdivisions are therefore fairly simplified. According to the Constitution of Romania, its territory is organized administratively into communes, towns and counties: * At the county level: 41 counties, and one city with special status (Bucharest, the national capital) * At the town/commune level: 103 municipalities and 217 other cities (for urban areas), and 2856 communes (for rural areas). Municipality (municipiu) status is accorded to larger towns, but it does not give their administrations any greater powers.
