Arrondissements (French pronunciation: [aʁɔ̃dismɑ̃]), is a level of administrative divisions of France.
As of 2016[update], the 101 French departments were divided into 334 arrondissements (including 12 overseas).
The capital of an arrondissement is called a subprefecture. When an arrondissement contains the prefecture (capital) of the department, that prefecture is the capital of the arrondissement, acting both as a prefecture and as a subprefecture.
Arrondissements are further divided into cantons and communes.
