Zone d'études et d'aménagement du territoire

In 1967 the ' (French National Institute for Statistics and Economic Studies, Institut national de la statistique et des études économiques, INSEE), together with the French Commissariat général and DATAR () declared the nominal division of France into eight large regions. These were named (Research and National Development Zones) or ZEAT.

Until 2016, the ZEAT corresponded to first-level NUTS of the European Union, the first level in the European Union Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (NUTS 1).
