Belde (literally "town", also known as ''kasaba'') means "large village with a municipality" in Turkish.〔(Dicle University Essay by Ali Özçağlar )〕 All Turkish province and district centers have municipalities. The villages (and also subdistricts) however are usually too small to have municipalities. But the population in some villages may exceed 2000 and in such villages a small municipality may be established depending on residents' choice. Such villages are called ''belde''. Up to 2014 the number of beldes was about 1400. However, on 30 March 2014 by the act no 6360 all villages (those with and without municipality) were included in the urban fabric of the district municipalities in 30 provinces. Thus belde municipalities in 30 provinces were abolished. The number of abolished belde municipalities is 1040.〔(Haber news )〕〔(Ordu news )〕 Presently, in 51 provinces, which are not in the scope of the act no 6360, there are still 394 beldes.〔(Atlas news )〕 ==See also== *2013 Turkish local government reorganisation *Metropolitan municipalities in Turkey 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Belde」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
