Subdivisions

According to the 2008 Constitution, the Republic of the Union of Myanmar constitutes seven regions, seven states and one union territory.[1] The constitution also mentions one self-administered division and five self-administered zones which are parts of some of the states and regions.[1] In addition to these constitutional administrative subdivisions, there are also extraconstitutional special regions controlled by ethnic armed groups which recognize the central government's sovereignty after the cease-fire agreements of 1989 and 1990s.[2]

The regions were called divisions prior to August 2010,[3] and four of them are named after their capital city, the exceptions being Sagaing Region, Ayeyarwady Region and Tanintharyi Region. The regions can be described as ethnically predominantly Burman (Bamar), while the states are dominated by ethnic minorities.

Regions and states are made up of districts, as well as self-administered zones and self-administered divisions if they exist.[1] The self-administered divisions are also constituted by districts. The districts and the self-administered zones consist of townships that include towns, wards and village tracts. Village tracts are groups of adjacent villages.

Yangon Region has the largest population and is the most densely populated. The smallest population is Kayah State. In terms of land area, Shan State is the largest and Naypyidaw Union Territory is the smallest.

The self-administered division (SAD) exists at an administrative level half-a-step below that of states, regions and the union territory, and the self-administrative zones (SAZ) exists at the district level.[4] The self-administered areas were formed by statutes on territory controlled by Myanmar's ethnic armed organisations.[5]

Within the hierarchy, the most significant unit of local governance below the first level is the township which form the a consistent set of administrative units across the country. Often, local governance will go directly from the township to the ward. Most of the country do not have separate town offices. For example, in 2015, only 7 of the 27 townships of Ayeyarwady Region had a town office at all.[6]

Additionally, some townships are divided into Subtownships (မြို့နယ်ခွဲ), which are semi-official parts of a township administered separately, often revolving around a town separate from the township's principal town. Many reports will use subtownships, especially more established subtownships used by the main townships themselves.[7]

The extraconstitutional cities of Yangon, Mandalay and Nay Pyi Taw are defined by development committee law. The territories of each city development committee contain multiple districts, below the city. In the cities of Yangon and Mandalay, township development committees are de jure subdivisions of the city development committee, without a district level.[8][9]

Executive authority is held in each state or region by a Regional or State Government consisting of a Chief Minister, other ministers and an Advocate General.[1] The President appoints the Chief Minister from a list of qualified candidates in the regional or state legislature; the legislature must approve this choice unless it is proven that the candidate does not meet constitutional qualifications.[1] Since 4th March 2026, the Region or State minister responsible for development affairs is appointed as the mayor for the capital of the respective Region or State.[11]

Legislative authority resides with the State Hluttaw or Region Hluttaw made up of elected civilian members and representatives of the Armed Forces. Both divisions are considered equivalent, the only distinction being that states have large ethnic minority populations and regions are mostly populated by the national majority Burmans / Bamar.[12]

Naypyidaw Union Territory

The constitution states that Naypyidaw shall be a Union Territory under the direct administration of the President. Day-to-day functions would be carried out on the President's behalf by the Naypyidaw Council led by a Chairperson. The Chairperson and members of the Naypyidaw Council are appointed by the President and shall include civilians and representatives of the Armed Forces.

Self-Administered Zones and Self-Administered Divisions are subdivisions of some of the states and regions. Self-administered zones are equivalent to the administrative level of districts while the self-administered division is above the district level. Each of them is administered by a Leading Body consisting of at least ten members and includes State or Regional Hluttaw members elected from the Zones or Divisions and other members nominated by the Armed Forces. The Leading Body has both executive and legislative powers. A Chairperson is head of each Leading Body.

Special Regions

Special Regions refer to areas not under the control of the central government that are co-administerd by an ethnic armed organisations under ceasefire agreements.[14] These regions were first formed in 1989 and through the 1990s under the State Peace and Development Council. The special regions are numbered and are as follows:[15]

The special regions in Shan State are often further distinguished by cardinal direction, such as Eastern Shan State Special Region 4 or Wa Special Region 2.

Districts and Townships

Districts of Myanmar as of 2022

Districts are the second-order divisions of Myanmar and are often named after a population center within the district of the same name. Shan State has the most districts, even excluding Self-Administered Zones and Divisions. Naypyidaw Union Territory, Tanintharyi and Mon State have the least with just 4 districts.[24] The District's role is more supervisory as the 330 townships are the basic administrative unit of local governance and are the only type of administrative division that covers the entirety of Myanmar. A District is led by a District Administrator and a Township is administered by a Township Administrator. Both are appointed civil servants through the General Administration Department (GAD) of the Ministry of Home Affairs (MOHA). The Minister of Home Affairs is to be appointed by the military according to the 2008 constitution.[25] The 2008 Constitution of Myanmar defined 75 districts. In April 2022, 46 additional districts were formed by MOHA bringing the total up to 121 districts.[26]

Most local governance services are offered at the Township level; few services are offered at the District level. The Township Administrator is the key focal point for most interactions with the government and the Township Administrator serves as a representative of the State or Region government and executes functions on behalf of the State or Region.[25] All Township governments are staffed by 34 GAD civil servants regardless of population, although larger townships may have several Township committees that coordinate with the Township and report to the District.[6] Subtownships exist for many but not all townships. They can be created for many reasons including, townships with large areas, townships with a large natural barrier or townships with a lopsided population distribution. These subtownships are unofficial, but can be used by the Township administration and national ministries for data collection and administrative ease.


Cities and Development Committees

The definition of a city or a town is ambiguous with the Burmese term မြို့ ("myo") being translated as any urban area. The term မြို့တော် ("myodaw"; royal myo) is used for a city to distinguish from a mere town. The General Administration Department only explicitly defines the three cities of Yangon, Mandalay and Naypyidaw.[27] The municipality is functionally administered at the city level with townships acting as subdivisions of the city in Yangon and Mandalay according to the development laws of each city.[8][9] In Yangon, the administrative jurisdiction of the Yangon City Development Committee overlap across 34 townships.[28][29] While the city of Yangon exists de facto, as the boundaries determined by the Yangon City Development Committee, the de jure relationship is between township development committees and the city development committee.[8] The city of Mandalay, in contrast, is slightly more defined in law, establishing a "city" with boundaries and constituent townships in its development law.[9]

Prior to the expansion of districts in 2022, the city of Mandalay was functionally administered at the Mandalay District level with townships acting de facto as subdivisions of a city.[30] The city of Yangon overlapped with all four pre-2022 districts.[28]

Towns / Village Tracts and Wards / Villages

Other settlements colloquially called "cities" are considered towns in Myanmar. All towns are contained within one township like Pathein. In some cases, the rural portions of the township centred on a different town may be administered semi-independently as sub-townships.[31]

The lowest level of practical administration is the ward for urban areas and village for rural areas. Villages are grouped into and administered as village tracts.[4] Village Tracts may contain up to 8 distinct villages. Some townships include areas not part of any ward or village tract. Most townships contain at least one ward/town, and are usually named after the population center. As of reforms in 2012 and 2013, Ward and Village Tract administrators are now typically elected, but report to the appointed Township Administrator. Ward Administrators and Village Tract Administrators (also called just Village Administrators) are supported by 100-household-heads and 10-household-heads who are collectively called area leaders.[6]

History

British colonisation

In 1900, Burma was a province of British India, and was divided into two subdivisions: Lower Burma, whose capital was Rangoon with four divisions (Arakan, Irrawaddy, Pegu, Tenasserim), and Upper Burma, whose capital was Mandalay with six divisions (Meiktila, Minbu, Sagaing, North Federated Shan States and South Federated Shan States).

On 10 October 1922, the Karenni States of Bawlake, Kantarawaddy, and Kyebogyi became a part of the Federated Shan States. In 1940, Minbu division's name was changed to Magwe, and Meiktila Divisions became part of Mandalay District.

Post-independence

Upon independence, on 4 January 1948, the Chin Hills area was split from Arakan Division to form Chin Special Division, and Kachin State was formed by carving out the Myitkyina and Bhamo districts of Mandalay Division. Karen State was also created from Amherst, Thaton, and Toungoo Districts of Tenasserim Division. Mongpai State of the Federated Shan States was separated to form Karenni State, and Shan State was formed by merging the other Federated Shan States and the Wa States.

In 1952, Karenni State was renamed Kayah State. Preparing since 1951, Karen State was officially founded in 1954. In 1964, Rangoon Division was separated from Pegu Division, whose capital shifted to Pegu. In addition, Karen State was renamed as Kawthoolei.

In 1972, the Hanthawaddy and Hmawbi districts were moved under Rangoon Division's jurisdiction. Tenasserim Division was divided into two separate divisions: Moulmein District and Thaton District came under the Tenasserim Division (1) with Moulmein as the capital, and Myeik District and Tavoy District constituted the Tenasserim Division (2) with Tavoy becoming its capital.[32]

The present-day structure of seven states and seven divisions was adopted after the coming into force of the 1974 Constitution. Chin Special Division became Chin State, and its capital moved from Falam to Hakha. The name of Kawthoolei was reverted to Karen State. Tenasserim Division (1) gained statehood as Mon State, whereas Tenasserim Division (2) became the only Tenasserim Division. In addition, Arakan Division was granted statehood as Arakan State. Notably, the district level was abolished and townships were put directly below the level of states and divisions.

After the coup d'état by the State Law and Order Restoration Council military junta in 1988, the new level of township zones was introduced between the level of state and divisions and the township level. In 1989, the names of many divisions in Burma were altered in English to reflect Burmese pronunciations.[33] The township zones were redefined as districts in 1992. In 1994, a new level of sub-states and sub-divisions were introduced between the level of states and divisions and the district level.

From 1989 onward, the military government granted the status of special regions to the territories controlled by some (not all) of the ethnic armed groups which entered into cease-fire agreement with the government. After 1995, in Kachin State Mohnyin District was created out of Myitkyina District as part of the peace agreement with the Kachin Independence Army.

2008 Constitution

The 2008 Constitution stipulates the renaming of the 7 "divisions" (တိုင်း in Burmese) as "regions" (တိုင်းဒေသကြီး in Burmese). It also stipulates the creation of Union territory which includes the capital Nay Pyi Taw with the same level as the states and regions, and the ethnic self-administered zones (ကိုယ်ပိုင်အုပ်ချုပ်ခွင့်ရဒေသ in Burmese) and self-administered divisions (ကိုယ်ပိုင်အုပ်ချုပ်ခွင့်ရတိုင်း in Burmese) which are the subdivisions of states and regions.[1] These self-administered regions include the following:

On 20 August 2010, the renaming of the 7 divisions and the naming of the 6 self-administered zones was announced by Burmese state media.[3]
