With provinces non-functional in practice, Taiwan is divided into 22 subnational divisions, among which counties and cities are the de facto principal constituent divisions,[3] along with special municipalities, directly under the Central Government. Each has a local government led by an elected head and a local council.[4]
^The provinces remain as titular divisions under the constitutional structure only, which are no longer considered as self-governing bodies after the suspension of provinces in 1998 following a constitutional amendment, and a complete abolishment of provincial governments took effect in 2018.[1][2]
