EspañolPROVINCES AND REGIONS OF PANAMA
A map of Panama, showing its nine provinces and three provincial-level ''comarcas indígenas'' (indigenous regions).
Panama is divided into nine provinces (Spanish: ''provincias'') and three provincial-level indigenous regions (Spanish: ''comarcas indígenas'', often foreshortened to ''comarcas'').
There are two further ''comarcas'' within provinces that are considered equivalent to a ''corregimiento'' (municipality).
The nine provinces are:
| Province | Capital |
|---|---|
| Bocas del Toro | Bocas del Toro |
| Chiriquí | David |
| Coclé | Penonomé |
| Colón | Colón |
| Darién | La Palma |
| Herrera | Chitré |
| Los Santos | Las Tablas |
| Panamá | Panamá |
| Veraguas | Santiago de Veraguas |
The three provincial-level ''comarcas'' (indicated by shading on the map above) are:
| ''Comarca'' | Capital |
|---|---|
| Emberá | Union Choco |
| Kuna Yala | El Porvenir |
| Ngöbe-Buglé | Chichica |
The two sub-provincial ''comarcas'' are:
| ''Comarca'' | Province |
|---|---|
| Kuna de Madugandí | Panamá |
| Kuna de Wargandí | Darién |
