Region is an area especially part of a country or the world having\u00a0definable\u00a0characteristics but not always fixed boundaries. It is a particular area or part of the world, or any of the large official areas into which a country is divided<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
HISTORY<\/strong> OF THE REGIONS<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThese\u00a0regions\u00a0are subdivided into 86\u00a0districts\u00a0and 7 communes; which are further subdivided into urban and rural communities. When Belgium a colony in November 1908, it was initially organized into 22 districts. Ten western districts were administered directly by the main colonial government<\/a>,<\/span> while the eastern part of the colony was administered under two vice-governments: eight northeastern , and four southeastern districts. Then In 1919, the colony was organized into four districts:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n- Congo-Kasa\u00ef\u00a0(five southwestern districts),<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
- \u00c9quateur\u00a0(five northwestern districts),<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
- Orientale Province\u00a0and\u00a0Katanga\u00a0(previous vice-governments).<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
In 1932, the colony<\/a><\/span> was reorganized into six provinces. firstly, they were named after their capital cities, but in 1947 regional names were adopted.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nRead: POLITICAL HISTORY OF CONGO<\/a><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe Belgian Congo became an independent country in 1960, named\u00a0Republic of the Congo. By 1963, the country was organized into 21 provinces plus the capital city, similar to the original 22 districts under colonial rule. And again 1966, the 21 provinces were grouped into eight, and the capital city was renamed Kinshasa.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Again in 1971 the country was renamed\u00a0Zaire, and three provinces were also renamed. Then during 1975, the capital city of Kinshasa obtained the status of a province. the province of Kivu was split into three In 1988. The country was renamed\u00a0Democratic Republic of the Congo 1997, and the three provinces that had been renamed in 1971 either retook their previous name or took another.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The Belgian Congo became an independent country in 1960, named\u00a0Republic of the Congo,and then By 1963, the country was organized into 21 provinces plus the capital city\u00a0were grouped into eight , and the capital city, similar to the original 22 districts under colonial rule. In 1966, the 21\u00a0provinces\u00a0were grouped into eight , and the capital city was renamed Kinshasa.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Also in 1971, the country was renamed\u00a0Zaire, and three provinces were also renamed. the capital city of Kinshasa obtained the status of a province In 1975. And then In 1988, the province of Kivu was split into three. In 1997, the country was renamed\u00a0Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the three provinces that had been renamed in 1971 either retook their previous name or took another.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Article 2 of the\u00a0Constitution of the Congo, adopted in 2006, specifies a territorial organisation in the regions of Congo into 26 provinces, again resembling the previous\u00a0regions and original colonial districts.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.aziza.com.ng\/read\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/download-1.jpg\")
