The Regions of Cameroon are divided into 58 divisions or departments. The divisions are further sub-divided into sub-divisions (''arrondissements'') and districts. The divisions are listed below, by province. The constitution divides Cameroon into 10 semi-autonomous regions, each under the administration of an elected Regional Council. A presidential decree of 12 November 2008 officially instigated the change from provinces to regions.〔(Décret N° 2008/376 du 12 novembre 2008 ), President of the Republic website. Accessed 9 June 2009.〕 Each region is headed by a presidentially appointed governor. These leaders are charged with implementing the will of the president, reporting on the general mood and conditions of the regions, administering the civil service, keeping the peace, and overseeing the heads of the smaller administrative units. Governors have broad powers: they may order propaganda in their area and call in the army, gendarmes, and police.〔Neba 250.〕 All local government officials are employees of the central government’s Ministry of Territorial Administration, from which local governments also get most of their budgets.〔http://www.state.gov/r/pa/ei/bgn/26431.htm〕 The regions are subdivided into 58 divisions (departments). These are headed by presidentially appointed divisional officers (フランス語:''préfets''), who perform the governors' duties on a smaller scale. The divisions are further sub-divided into sub-divisions (フランス語:''arrondissements''), headed by assistant divisional officers (フランス語:''sous-prefets''). The districts, administered by district heads (フランス語:''chefs de district''), are the smallest administrative units. These are found in large sub-divisions and in regions that are difficult to reach. The three northernmost regions are the Far North (フランス語:''Extrême Nord''), North (フランス語:''Nord''), and Adamawa (フランス語:''Adamaoua''). Directly south of them are the Centre (フランス語:''Centre'') and East (フランス語:''Est''). The South Province (フランス語:''Sud'') lies on the Gulf of Guinea and the southern border. Cameroon's western region is split into four smaller regions: The Littoral (フランス語:''Littoral'') and Southwest (フランス語:''Sud-Ouest'') regions are on the coast, and the Northwest (フランス語:''Nord-Ouest'') and West (フランス語:''Ouest'') regions are in the western grassfields. The Northwest and Southwest were once part of British Cameroons; the other regions were in French Cameroun. ==Adamawa (''Adamaoua'')== The Adamawa province of Cameroon contains the following five departments: # Djérem # Faro-et-Déo # Mayo-Banyo # Mbéré # Vina 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「Departments of Cameroon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
