Governorate
A governorate is an administrative division of a country. It is headed by a governor. As English-speaking nations tend to call regions administered by governors either states, provinces, or colonies, the term ''governorate'' is often used in translation from non-English-speaking administrations.
The most common usage is as a translation of the Arabic ''Muhafazah''. It may also refer to the ''guberniya'' and ''general-gubernatorstvo'' of Imperial Russia or the 34 ''gobernaciones'' of Imperial Spain.
==Arab countries==
The term governorate is widely used in Arab countries to describe an administrative unit. Some governorates combine more than one ''wilayah''; others closely follow traditional boundaries inherited from the Ottoman Empire's ''vilayet'' system.
With the exception of Tunisia, all translations into the term governorate originate in the Arabic word ''muhafazah''.
