Notes:

1) Distribution of local administrative units is as follows:

Each metropolitan city (at the same time a province capital), metropolitan city county, province capital, county capital and town (population less than 10000) has a municipality. Each province and county also has a local governmental administration unit which mirrors the structure of the central government (total number is 929). Province and county governments are each counted as a single unit although they have departments corresponding to most ministries at national level, such as the census department, revenue department, etc. Similarly, metropolitan city municipality units such as water and sewage administrations, city public transportation administrations are not included in figures.

2) Professional training centers not included in schools (total number of web sites is 124). Preschools are not included in schools. Secondary schools include high schools as named in the North American system. Higher schools and universities include universities only because all higher education institutions (excluding military schools) such as higher vocational schools and faculties are part of a university. For consistency purposes we count only universities.

3) Population figure for hospitals/clinics include only hospitals. Smaller healthcare units such as independent clinics and health centers are not included.

4) Ministries of State are not included in population figure for ministries, but the prime ministry is.

5) Library search services (total number of web sites 12) are not included in web sites for libraries.
