The Brazilian administrative region (Template:Lang-pt) are a administrative division of the Federal District (31 in all), or of the city of Rio de Janeiro (33 in all).
Federal District
The Constitution of Brazil explicitly forbids the Federal District to divide into municipalities. It is instead divided into 31 administrative regions, as laid out in the 1964 federal law no. 4.545.[1][2] Prior to this law, the regions were not officially defined, but their seats already existed and were often indiscriminately called satellite cities, with the exception of Brasília.[citation needed]
The administrative regions are territorial subdivisions of the Federal District, for which physical limits, established by public power, define the jurisdiction of government action for purposes of administrative decentralization and coordination of public services. Each administrative region hosts a corresponding regional administration headed by a regional administrator appointed by the Governor of the Federal District. Administrations are responsible for representing the government of the Federal District locally.[3][4]
Rio de Janeiro
The city of Rio de Janeiro is divided into 33 administrative regions. Those are different from the Brasiliense ones, as they are merely a kind of local districts.
