File:United Nations geographical subregions.png, created by the United Nations Statistics Division. For statistical consistency and convenience, each country or area is shown in one continental subregion only. For example, Russia (a transcontinental country in both Eastern Europe and Northern Asia) has been included in Eastern Europe only.]]
A subregion is a part of a larger geographical region or continent. Cardinal directions are commonly used to define subregions. There are many criteria for creating systems of subregions; this article is focusing on the United Nations geoscheme, which is a changing, constantly updated, UN tool based on specific political geography and demography considerations relevant in UN statistics.

{{Further|List of countries and territories by the United Nations geoscheme}}
The Statistics Division of the United Nations (UN) is in charge of the collection, processing, and dissemination of statistical information for the UN.[http://millenniumindicators.un.org/unsd/aboutus.htm United Nations Statistics Division - About Us] In 1999, it developed a system of macro-geographical (continental) regions, subregions, and other selected economic groups to report advances towards achieving numerous Millennium Development Goals worldwide. These statistical divisions were devised for statistical purposes and is used for carrying out statistical analysis.[http://millenniumindicators.un.org/unsd/methods/m49/m49regin.htm United Nations Statistics Division - Standard Country and Area Codes Classifications] The division's first publication was the book World's Women 2000: Trends and Statistics in 2000.
According to the UN, the assignment of countries or areas to specific groupings is for statistical convenience and does not imply any assumption regarding political or other affiliation of countries or territories.[http://unstats.un.org/unsd/methods/m49/m49.htm Standard country or area codes and geographical regions for statistical use]
