Provinces of Vietnam
Vietnam is divided into 58 provinces (known in Vietnamese as tỉnh). There are also 5 centrally-controlled municipalities existing at the same level as provinces (thành phố trực thuộc trung ương).
The provinces are divided into districts (huyện), provincial cities (thành phố trực thuộc tỉnh), and towns (thị xã), which are subdivided into towns (thị trấn) or communes (xã).
The centrally-controlled municipalities are divided into rural districts (huyện) and urban districts (quận), which are subdivided into wards (phường).
Government
Vietnamese provinces are, at least in theory, controlled by a People's Council, elected by the inhabitants. The People's Council appoints a People's Committee, which acts as the executive arm of the provincial government. This arrangement is a somewhat simplified version of the situation in Vietnam's national government. Provincial governments are expected to be subordinate to the central government.
People's Council
Each People's Council has a Standing Committee made up of the Chairperson and his/her deputies, who are elected from among the representatives in the People's Council. The Standing Committee has a number of functions, including representing the People's Council when it is not in session. There are also a number of other committees established to deal with specific issues. All provinces have an Economic and Budgetary Committee, a Social and Cultural Committee, and a Legal Committee. If a province has many inhabitants who are not ethnically Vietnamese, there will probably be a Committee for Ethnic Affairs as well.
Citizens are eligible to vote in People's Council elections from when they are aged eighteen, but cannot stand for election until they are aged twenty-one. To become a candidate, one can either nominate oneself or be selected by the Fatherland Front. Nominated candidates are then voted on at "voters' conferences", which are organized by the Fatherland Front. Attendees determine, sometimes by secret ballot and sometimes by a show of hands, whether candidates meet the criteria set down by the People's Council. Candidates who the conference does not "express trust" in cannot stand for election.
The number of candidates elected per voting district is between one and three. There must be more candidates standing in each district than there are seats to be filled.
People's Committee
The People's Committee is, as mentioned previously, the executive arm of a provincial government, and is responsible for formulating and implementing policy. It may be thought of as the equivalent of a cabinet. The People's Committee will have a President and a Vice-President, and between nine or eleven ordinary members.

Regions
The Vietnamese government often groups the various provinces into eight regions.
Northwestern (Tây Bắc) contains four inland provinces in the west of Vietnam's northern part. Two of them border Laos, and one borders China.
Northeastern (Dong Bac) contains eleven mountainous provinces north of the highly populated Red River lowlands.
Greater Ha Noi – Red River Delta (Hà Nội Kinh-Dong Bang Song Hong) contains nine small, populous provinces around the Red River, including the national capital Hanoi, and the municipality of Haiphong.
North Central Coast (Bắc Trung Bộ) contains six provinces in the northern half of Vietnam's central part. All provinces in this region stretch from the coast in the east to Laos in the west.
South Central Coast (Nam Trung Bộ) contains five coastal provinces in the southern half of Vietnam's central part. The region also includes the independent municipality of Danang.
Central Highlands (Tây Nguyên) contains the five inland mountainous provinces of south-central Vietnam.
Southeastern (Dong Nam Bo) contains those parts of southern Vietnam which are north of the Mekong delta. There are seven provinces, plus the independent municipality of Ho Chi Minh City.
Southwestern – Mekong River Delta (Tây Nam Bo Việt Nam-Đồng Bằng Sông Cửu Long) is Vietnam's southernmost region, and contains twelve mostly small but populous provinces in the Mekong delta and the independent municipality of Can Tho.
The provinces are divided into districts (huyện), provincial cities (thành phố trực thuộc tỉnh), and towns (thị xã), which are subdivided into towns (thị trấn) or communes (xã).
The centrally-controlled municipalities are divided into rural districts (huyện) and urban districts (quận), which are subdivided into wards (phường).
