#### Description

The geoBoundaries Global Database of Political Administrative Boundaries
Database is an online, open license resource of boundaries (i.e., state,
county) for every country in the world. Currently 199 total entities are
tracked, including all 195 UN member states, Greenland, Taiwan, Niue, and
Kosovo.

Comprehensive Global Administrative Zones (CGAZ) is a set of global
composites for administrative boundaries. Disputed areas are removed and
replaced with polygons following US Department of State definitions. It has
three boundary levels ADM0, ADM1, and ADM2, clipped to international
boundaries (US Department of State), with gaps filled between borders.

This dataset is part of CGAZ. It was ingested from
[version 6.0.0](https://github.com/wmgeolab/geoBoundaries/tree/1289e40e366c7b320550be1ee0614a9472d572d4)
of Global Composite Files with DBF_DATE_LAST_UPDATE=2023-09-13.
It shows boundaries at level
ADM1 (district-level boundaries).
