In Kiribati, there are no more official subdivisions but it is possible to divide Kiribati geographically into three groups of islands:
Kiribati was divided into 6 districts until independence:
Four of the former districts (including Tarawa) lie in the Gilbert Islands, where most of the islands' population lives. Only three of the Line Islands are inhabited, while the Phoenix Islands are uninhabited but Kanton and Orona (80 people) and have no representation. Banaba itself is sparsely inhabited now. There is also a representative non-elected of the Banabans relocated to Rabi Island in the nation of Fiji.
There are a total of 21 inhabited islands in Kiribati. Each inhabited island has its own council.
