List of administrative regions in Federal District
This is a list of the administrative regions (in Portuguese: região administrativa) in the Distrito Federal (DF), Brazil.
History
The Constitution of Brazil divides the country into Federated states and these into municipalities, but explicitly forbids the Federal District to subdivide into municipalities.
However, the Federal District is divided into administrative regions, according to law 4.545/64.
