The governorates of Oman (Template:Langx), are the 11 first-level administrative divisions of the Sultanate of Oman.
History
Before 28 October 2011, Oman was divided into five regions (mintaqah) and four governorates (muhafazah).[1] The governorates were Muscat, Dhofar, Buraimi and Musandam. Buraimi Governorate was created in October 2006 from parts of Ad Dhahirah Region.
Oman is divided into eleven governorates (muhafazah) as of 28 October 2011.[2][3][4] Each of the 11 governorates are divided into wilayat (provinces).
