    China has 34 provincial-level administrative regions, including 23 provinces, 5 autonomous regions, 4 municipalities directly under the central government, and 2 special administrative regions. Historically and customarily, each provincial-level administrative region has an abbreviation. The provincial-level people's residence is called the provincial capital (capital), and the location of the people's residence is the capital.

    Beijing is the capital of China.

    Administrative divisions are the areas that are divided by the state into different levels for the convenience of administration. Therefore, administrative divisions are also known as administrative regions. The Constitution of the People's Republic of China stipulates that the administrative regions of the People's Republic of China are divided as follows:

    1) The country is divided into provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the Central Government;

    2) Provinces and autonomous regions are divided into autonomous prefectures, counties, autonomous counties, and cities;

    3) Counties and autonomous counties are divided into townships, ethnic townships, and towns.

    Municipalities and larger cities are divided into districts and counties. Autonomous prefectures are divided into counties, autonomous counties, and cities.

    Autonomous regions, autonomous prefectures, and autonomous counties are all ethnic autonomous areas. The State may establish special administrative regions when necessary. The systems to be implemented in the special administrative regions shall be prescribed by law by the National People's Congress in accordance with specific circumstances.

    At present, China has 34 provincial-level administrative regions, including 23 provinces, 5 autonomous regions, 4 municipalities directly under the Central Government and 2 special administrative regions. Historically and customarily, each provincial-level administrative region has an abbreviation. The provincial-level people's residence is called the provincial capital (capital), and the location of the people's residence is the capital.

    Beijing is the capital of China.

    Townships are the most basic administrative units in China. Autonomous regions, autonomous prefectures, and autonomous counties are ethnic autonomous areas in areas inhabited by ethnic minorities, and they are all inseparable parts of the motherland. The State may also establish special administrative regions as needed.

    In addition, in order to facilitate administrative and economic construction, and to strengthen national unity, the State may make necessary adjustments and changes to administrative divisions as necessary. Hong Kong and Macao are part of China's territory. On 1 July 1997, China** resumed the exercise of sovereignty over Hong Kong and established the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.

    On 20 December 1999, the exercise of sovereignty over Macao was resumed and the Macao Special Administrative Region was established.
