Kiribati was divided into 6 districts until independence:

Four of the former districts (including Tarawa) lie in the Gilbert Islands, where 90% of the islands' population lives. Only three of the Line Islands are inhabited, while the Phoenix Islands are uninhabited apart from Canton (20 people) and have no representation. Banaba itself is sparsely inhabited now (268 people in 2015). There is also a representative non-elected of the Banabans relocated since 1945 to Rabi Island in the nation of Fiji.

Island Councils

There are a total of 21 inhabited islands in Kiribati. Each inhabited island has its own council. Two atolls have more than one island councils: Tarawa has three and Tabiteuea has two, for a total of 24 local councils. John Hilary Smith as a Governor, created the three councils of Tarawa, in 1972.
