List Of Municipalities Of Lithuania
__NOTOC__ Lithuania is divided into three layers of administrative divisions. The first-level division consists of 10 counties ( Lithuanian: singular – ''apskritis'', plural – ''apskritys''). These are sub-divided into 60 municipalities (Lithuanian: plural – ''savivaldybės'', singular – ''savivaldybė''), which in turn are further sub-divided into over 500 smaller groups, known as elderships (Lithuanian: plural – ''seniūnijos'', singular – ''seniūnija''). At the end of its tenure as a Soviet Socialist Republic, Lithuania's administrative divisions consisted of 44 regions, 12 cities, 80 towns, 19 settlements, and 426 rural districts. The reform of this system was an immediate concern for the new government. The Constitution of Lithuania, ratified in 1992, delegated the power of establishing future administrative units to the Lithuanian Parliament (Seimas). Accordingly, the Seimas passed two fundamental laws: a 1993 law on government representation and a 1994 law ...

List Of Cities In Lithuania
In Lithuania, there are 103 cities (in Lithuanian language, Lithuanian: Grammatical number, singular – miestas, plural – miestai). The term ''city'' is defined by the Seimas, Parliament of Lithuania as compact urban areas populated by more than 3,000 people of whom at least two thirds work in the industry or service sector. Those settlements which have a population of less than 3,000 but historically had city status are still considered to be cities. Smaller settlements are called ''miestelis'' (plural ''miesteliai'') which is translated as towns. Even smaller settlements (villages) are called ''kaimas'' (plural ''kaimai''). Often the official status is not clear and people refer to both towns and villages as ''gyvenvietė'' (plural ''gyvenvietės'') which in essence means ''settlement''. The cities started to form in the 13th-14th century together with the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. The first to receive city rights was Klaipėda. According to medieval law, a city could have i ...
