Provinces Of Colombia
Colombia is divided into 32 ''departments.'' These in turn are divided into ''municipalities,'' though some receive the special category of ''district''. However, there are also ''provinces'', a generic name applied to provinces, districts, regions and subregions. These are generally internal administrative authorities of the departments, more historical than legal. Most Colombian departments have this kind of subdivision. Those that do not are the departments of Amazonas, Arauca, Caquetá, Casanare, Guainía, Guaviare, Putumayo, San Andrés y Providencia, Vaupés, and Vichada.
