States and regions of Somalia

Somalia is a federal republic. It consists of 6 federal member states--Somaliland (claimed but uncontrolled), Puntland, Galmudug, Hirshaabelle, South West, and Jubaland--as well as an interim administration, Khatumo, and a regional administration, Banaadir. Somalia is further subdivided into 18 administrative regions (gobollo, singular gobol), which are in turn subdivided into districts.
