Communes Of Ivory Coast
The communes of Ivory Coast are a fifth-level administrative unit of administration in Ivory Coast. The sub-prefectures of Ivory Coast contain villages, and in select instances more than one village is combined into a commune. There are currently 197 communes in the 510 sub-prefectures. Prior to 2011, communes were the third-level administrative units of the country. Under the administration of Laurent Gbagbo, the number of communes grew to more than 1300. In 2011, a reorganization of the country's subdivisions was undertaken, with a goal of decentralizing the state. As part of the reorganization, communes were converted from third-level divisions into fifth-level divisions. In March 2012, the government abolished 1126 communes on the grounds that under the new jurisdiction of districts, regions, departments, and sub-prefectures, these particular communes were not economically viable governmental units.

Guinea–Ivory Coast Border
The Guinea–Ivory Coast border is in length and runs from the tripoint with Mali in the north to the tripoint with Liberia in the south. Description The border starts in the north at the Malian tripoint, briefly going overland to the south-west before reaching the Sankarani River. The border follows this river, then the Gbanhala, southwards, before joining the Kourou Kelle river. The border then proceeds overland to the south via a series of irregular lines, before reaching the Bagbe river, which it then follows as it flows to the west, followed by the Koure as it flows to the south. A series of irregular overland lines then connect southwards to the Liberian tripoint in the Nimba Range.

France has also annexed the coast of what is now Guinea in the late 19th century as the Riviùres du Sud ...
