Map of constituencies in Namibia

Namibia consists of 14 regions in which there are a total of 121 constituencies (up to August 8, 2013 13 regions and 107 constituencies). Each county has a county administrative seat.

The constituencies are divided according to size and number of inhabitants. Changes to these constituencies - and regions - can only be made by the Delimitation Commission of Namibia . In each constituency, a representative for is Regional (regional council) elected. According to the proposal of the 4th Demarcation Commission , in 2013 President Pohamba divided the Kavango region into Kavango East , which takes the region number from Kavango, and Kavango West , which is listed as the new region number 14.

The population is based on the last census in 2011 .
