Bakhsh
A ( fa, بخش, also romanized as ) is a third-level administrative division of Iran. While sometimes translated as "county," it is more accurately translated as "district," similar to a township in the United States or a district of England. In Iran, the provinces (first-level divisions) (استان, ''ostān'') consist of several counties (second-level divisions) (شهرستان, ''shahrestān''), and the counties consist of one or more districts (third-level divisions) (بخش, ''bakhsh''). A district consists of a combination of cities (شهر ''shahr'') and rural districts (دهستان, ''dehestān'') (fourth-level divisions). The official governor of a district is called a ''bakhshdar'', the head of the ''bakhshdari'' office. Rural districts are a collection of villages and their surrounding lands. One of the cities of the county is named its capital. To better understand such subdivisions, the following table may be helpful. Below is the 2006 structure of Khash ...
