The territorial organization of Serbia
is regulated by the Law on Territorial Organization, adopted by the National Assembly of Serbia
on 29 December 2007. Under the Law, the units of the territorial organization are: municipalities
, cities and autonomous provinces.
Serbia is also divided into 29 districts
under the Government's Enactment of 29 January 1992.
in the north (39 municipalities and 6 cities) and Kosovo and Metohija in the south (28 municipalities and 1 city). The Autonomous Province of Kosovo and Metohija (or just Kosovo for short) has been transferred to the UN administration of UNMIK since June 1999. In February 2008, the Government of Kosovo
declared its independence
, a move recognized by, as of September 2011, 81 countries (most of the European Union
and USA) but not recognized by Serbia or the United Nations
.
The province of Vojvodina has its own assembly and government. It enjoys autonomy on certain matters, such as infrastructure, science, education and culture.
The area that lies between Vojvodina and Kosovo was called Central Serbia
before 2009. Central Serbia was not an administrative division (unlike the autonomous provinces), and it did not had regional authority of its own. In 2009-2010, territory of Central Serbia was divided into 3 statistical regions and it is no longer regarded as a single statistical unit by the Serbian government.
adopted the Law on Equal Territorial Development that formed 7 statistical regions in the territory of Serbia
. The Law was amended on 7 April 2010, so that the number of regions was reduced to 5. The Eastern Serbia was merged with Southern Serbia and Šumadija
was merged with Western Serbia.
The five statistical regions are:
and 24 cities, which form the basic units of local self-government
.
Municipalities comprise local communities
, which mostly correspond to settlements (villages) in the rural areas (several small villages can comprise one local community, and large villages can contain several communities). Urban areas are also divided into local communities. Their roles include communication of elected municipal representatives with citizens, organization of citizen initiatives related with public service and communal issues. They are presided with councils, elected on semi-formal elections, whose members are basically volunteers. Role of local communities is far more important in rural areas; due to proximity to municipal centers, many urban local communities are defunct.
The city may and may not be divided into "city municipalities". Five cities, Belgrade
, Novi Sad
, Niš
, Požarevac
and Kragujevac
comprise several municipalities, divided into urban and suburban areas. Competences of cities and their municipalities are divided. Of those, only Novi Sad did not undergo the full transformation, as the newly formed municipality of Petrovaradin
exists only formally; thus, the Municipality of Novi Sad is largely equated to City of Novi Sad (and the single largest municipality in the country, with around 300,000 residents).
Serbia is divided into 29 districts (17 in Central Serbia, 7 in Vojvodina and 5 in Kosovo), while the city of Belgrade presents a district of its own.
called the lands of the South Slavs "Sclaviniaes" (from the Sclaveni, the Southwestern branch), and they were initially out Imperial control, however by the second half of the 7th century, most of the Slavs in proximity with Byzantium had recognized the Emperor's supreme rule.
The Serbs had, by the 10th century, a Kingdom that had 2 geographical divisions, the Maritime
and the Hinterlands, composed of several regions (principalities):
Konavle
was of a status lower than the states, and higher than the Zhupas, considered part of Travunia
.
, and then the Republic of Serbia
(from September 28, 1990) had a complex administrative division of its Central Serbia
part. It was subdivided into nine Intermunicipal Regional Communities (Međuopštinske regionalne zajednice - MRZ). These were:
The City of Belgrade (on the map numbered as 1) was considered the capital city area of Serbia and officially designated as the Collectivity of City Municipalities of Belgrade, also known as the Greater Belgrade (or Metropolitan Area of Belgrade) in geographical literature.
MRZs existed officially up to December 31, 1990.
. According to the new subdivision, Kosovo is divided into 7 (new) districts
and 37 municipalities
(8 new municipalities were created: Mališevo
, Đeneral Janković, Gračanica
, Junik
, Klokot-Vrbovac
, Mamuša
, Parteš
and Ranilug
). The "Serb" districts function in the areas where Kosovo Serbs live, but are only recognized by Serbs, while the "UNMIK" districts, which function in all of Kosovo, are recognized only by Kosovo Albanians.
