Administratively, Damascus Governorate, one of Syria's 14 governorates, is divided into two cities: the city of Damascus and the city of Yarmouk. The city of Damascus is divided into 16 municipalities (Arabic: بلدية, romanized: baladiyah). Every municipal district is managed by an elected mayor, which in turn is divided into 95 districts (Arabic: الحي hayy),[1] each headed by a mayor, and they all participate in the election of the Damascus city council.[2] Yarmouk is one whole municipality, and is divided into 6 neighborhoods.[1]
