    China has 23 provinces, 4 municipalities, 5 autonomous regions and 2 special administrative regions. The provinces are: Hebei Province, Shanxi Province, Liaoning Province, Jilin Province, Heilongjiang Province, Jiangsu Province, Zhejiang Province, Anhui Province, Fujian Province, Taiwan Province, Jiangxi Province, Shandong Province, Henan Province, Hubei Province, etc.

    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.

    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. China's Constitution 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.
