Internal administrative territorial jurisdiction of Catalonia
Catalonia's current regional plan, with its eight vegueries and the Aran Valley not included in any:
Barcelona (Àmbit metropolità)
Alt Pirineu
Tarragona
Penedès
Central Catalonia (Comarques Centrals)
Girona (Comarques Gironines)
Lleida (Ponent)
Terres de l'Ebre
Aran Valley
Catalonia is internally divided into eight regional divisions, known in Catalan as vegueries (singular vegueria, Catalan pronunciation:[bəɣəˈɾi.ə]), following the regional plan of Catalonia. Each vegueria is further divided into comarques and municipalities, with the exception of the Aran Valley, considered a "unique territorial entity".[1]
The vegueries system is based on the feudal administrative territorial jurisdiction of the Principality of Catalonia, which was abolished with the Nueva Planta decrees of 1716.[2] The current division was established by the Statute of Autonomy of Catalonia of 2006 with two functions: an inter-municipal government and the arrangement of the services from the Generalitat de Catalunya.[3]
However, although the vegueries are intended to become Catalonia's first-level administrative division and a full replacement for the four diputacions of the official Catalan provinces within the Spanish system in the future and create a council for each vegueria,[4] the latter is currently still used administratively at state level,[5][6] as changes to the statewide provinces system are unconstitutional.[7]
