:Category:First-level administrative divisions by country
{{Commons category}}
{{Category see also|Categories by country subdivision}}
Countries' first-level (top-level) administrative divisions.
Please note: This category's subcategories contain articles on each subdivision of the country while each directly included article considers the subdivisions structure of the country.
Further note: This category's subcategories are indexed according to country, but its directly included articles are not: they are indexed by type of subdivision (provinces, counties, etc). Articles with non-English subdivision terms in their titles either have their redirects indexed instead, or are indexed by the common English translation for said subdivision. This facilitates comparisons between similarly named subdivisions.
