NUTS statistical regions of Georgia
The Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (NUTS) is a geographical standard used by Georgia in order to divide its territory into regions at three different levels of specified classes of its population. Georgia is a recognised potential candidate country for membership of the European Union (EU) and thus part of the classification.[1] The three hierarchical levels are known as NUTS-1, NUTS-2 and NUTS-3, moving from larger to smaller territorial divisions.[2] According to the Annex 1 of the Harmonization Plan.[3]
