Explanation: Districts in the boundaries of 2023. Population figures of new delimitated districts are computed by using subdistricts or villages in the boundaries of 2011. Thus, slight deviatiations from the actual population are possible in some cases. Area figures of new delimitated districts are derived from geospatial data.
