The 'municipalities of the Republic of Macedonia' are first-order
administrative divisions. In August 2004, the
Republic of Macedonia was reorganised into 84
municipalities (
Macedonian: ''oпштини'', ''opštini''; singular: ''oпштина'', ''opština''); 10 of the municipalities constitute the
City of Skopje (or Greater Skopje), a distinct unit of local
self-government and the country's
capital.
Most of the current municipalities were unaltered or merely amalgamated from the previous 123 municipalities established in September 1996; others were consolidated and their borders changed. Prior to this, local government was organised into 34 administrative districts, communes, or counties (also ''opštini'').
In turn, Macedonia is subdivided into eight statistical regions (''регион'', ''regioni''), based on the prior municipal/county framework; one of these regions, Skopje, encompasses Greater Skopje and the surrounding area.
