Euboea is one of the five regional districts of the Greek region of Central Greece with the capital Chalkida. From 1833 until the administrative reform of 2010 it had the status of a prefecture, whose functions were transferred to the region and the municipalities, which were greatly reduced by amalgamation. The Evia regional district sends 18 members to the Central Greek Regional Council, but has no political significance beyond that. Its area includes the islands of Euboea and Skyros and a small area on the central Greek mainland opposite Chalkida. He fell into the communities of Chalkida , Dirfys-Messapia , Eretria , Istiea-Edipsos , Karystos , Kymi-Aliveri , Mandoudi-Limni and Skyros.
