How many regions is Ghana divided into?

Ghana is administratively divided into 16 regions: Ahafo, Ashanti, Bono, Bono East, Central, Eastern, Greater Accra, North East, Northern, Oti, Savannah, Upper East, Upper West, Volta, Western, and Western North. These regions are further subdivided into districts.1

It is important to note that while the country is divided into these 16 administrative regions, it also contains three major geographic regions—coastal, forest, and northern savanna—which are defined by their physical and environmental characteristics rather than administrative boundaries.2
