Administrative divisions of Cambodia

Administrative divisions of Cambodia have several levels. Cambodia is divided into 24 provinces (Khmer: ខេត្ត, khaet) and the special administrative unit Phnom Penh (Khmer: ភ្នំពេញ). Though a different administrative unit, Phnom Penh is at province level, so de facto Cambodia has 25 provinces and municipality.
Each province is divided into Districts (Khmer: ស្រុក, Srok)- as of 2010 there are 159 districts and 12 districts in Phnom Penh (Khmer: ខណ្ឌ, Khan). Each province has one capital district (changed to "City/Town", Khmer: ក្រុង, Krong), e.g. for Siem Reap, it's Srok Siem Reap. The exceptions are the province of Banteay Meanchey, Kandal, Mondulkiri, Oddar Meanchey, Preah Vihear and Ratanakiri, where the province and the capital district does not match.
A district (ស្រុក, srok) of a province is divided into "Communes" (Khmer: ឃុំ, Khum). A commune (Khmer: ឃុំ, Khum) is further divided into "Villages" (Khmer: ភូមិ, Phum).
In Phnom Penh the districts are called Khan (Khmer: ខណ្ឌ), and their subdivisions Sangkat (Khmer: សង្កាត់) which are smaller in the other provinces.
Sangkat are further subdivided into Phum (Khmer: ភូមិ), which are usually translated as villages, though they do not necessarily cover one single settlement.
