The territorial collectivities of the Kingdom are the regions, the prefectures, the provinces and the communes. They constitute public legal persons, which manage their affairs democratically. The Councils of the regions and of the communes are elected by direct universal suffrage. Any other territorial collectivity is created by law, where appropriate, in substitution for one or more of the collectivities mentioned in the first paragraph above.
