Administrative Divisions of Togo
The skinny country of TOGO, located in Western Africa and west of Benin, south of Burkina Faso, and east of Ghana, is divided up into five regions (also spelled with an acute accent/accent aigu: régions) and prefectures (also spelled préfectures). The five régions from north to south are Savanes, Kara, Centrale, Plateaux, and Maritime. Below is a list showing what préfectures are in each region.
● Savanes: Oti and Tône
● Kara: Assoli, Bassar, Bimah, Doufelgou, Kéran, and Kozah
● Centrale: Sotouboua, Tchamba, and Tchaudjo
● Plateaux: Amou, Haho, Kloto, Ogou, and Wawa
● Maritime: Golfe, Lacs, Vo, Yoto, and Zio (Lomé, Togo's capital, is also a préfecture)
The map I made shows the préfectures of Togo. Shapefiles used to make this map came from the website Global Administrative Areas.
