Provinces of Colombia

Colombia is divided into 32 departments. These in turn are divided into municipalities, though some receive the special category of district. However, there are also provinces, a generic name applied to provinces, districts, regions and subregions. These are generally internal administrative authorities of the departments, more historical than legal. Most Colombian provinces have this kind of subdivision. Those that do not are the departments of Amazonas, Arauca, Caquetá, Casanare, Chocó, Guainía, Guaviare, Putumayo, San Andrés y Providencia, Vaupés, and Vichada.

gollark: <@151391317740486657> PotatOS logs all events in extended monitoring mode, but as I am not an idiot these are logged to your local computer and not my server directly.
gollark: ...
gollark: PotatOS actually has basically no logging by default (i.e. without extended monitoring on).
gollark: Scrolling up. Please hold on.
gollark: SolarFlame5: Two adjacent computers can communicate over labelnet, but not modems.
