Provinces of Italy
Italy is divided into 20 Regions (Regioni in Italian) and every Region is divided into Provinces. There are 110 provinces in Italy.[1] Each province is headed by a President assisted by a representative body, the Provincial Council, and an executive body, the Provincial Executive.
The three main jobs of a province are:
- Local planning and zoning
- Provision of local police and fire services.
- Transportation regulation (car registration, maintenance of local roads, etc.)
