[[File:Chongqing Great Hall of the People 2017.jpg|thumb|right|The [[Great Hall of the People (Chongqing)|Great Hall of the People]] serves as the venue for major political conferences in Chongqing.]]
Since 1997, Chongqing has been a [[direct-controlled municipality]] in the Chinese administrative structure, making it a provincial-level division with commensurate political importance. The municipality's leader is [[Party Secretary of Chongqing|Secretary]] of the [[Chongqing Municipal Committee of the Chinese Communist Party|Municipal Committee of the Chinese Communist Party]], which, since 2007, has also held a seat on the [[Politburo of the Chinese Communist Party]], the country's second highest governing council. Under the USSR-inspired [[nomenklatura]] system of appointments, individuals are appointed to the position by the central leadership of the CCP and bestowed to an official based on seniority and adherence to party orthodoxy, usually given to an individual with prior regional experience elsewhere in China and nearly never a native of Chongqing. Notable individuals who have held the municipal Party Secretary position include [[He Guoqiang]], [[Wang Yang (politician)|Wang Yang]], [[Bo Xilai]], [[Zhang Dejiang]], and [[Sun Zhengcai]], the latter three were Politburo members during their term as party chief. The party chief heads the municipal [[party standing committee]], the ''de facto'' top governing council of the municipality. The standing committee is typically composed of 13 individuals which includes the party chiefs of important subdivisions and other leading figures in the local party and government organization, as well as one military representative.

The [[Chongqing Municipal People's Government|municipal People's Government]] serves as the day-to-day administrative authority, and is headed by the [[Mayor of Chongqing|mayor]], who is assisted by numerous vice mayors and mayoral assistants. Each vice mayor is given jurisdiction over specific municipal departments. The mayor is the second-highest-ranking official in the municipality. The mayor usually represents the city when foreign guests visit.<ref>{{cite web |last=Page |first=Jeremy |url=https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424052702304459804577282280904864936 |title=Chongqing Party Chief Position |publisher=Online.wsj.com |date=15 March 2012 |access-date=10 December 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171124203540/https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424052702304459804577282280904864936 |archive-date=24 November 2017 |url-status=live  }}</ref>

The municipality also has a [[Chongqing Municipal People's Congress|Municipal People's Congress]], theoretically elected by lower level People's Congresses. The People's Congress nominally appoints the mayor and approves the nominations of other government officials. The People's Congress, like those of other provincial jurisdictions, is generally seen as a symbolic body. It convenes in full once a year to approve party-sponsored resolutions and local regulations and duly confirm party-approved appointments. On occasion the People's Congress can be venues of discussion on municipal issues, although this is dependent on the actions of individual delegates. The municipal People's Congress is headed by a former municipal official, usually in their late fifties or sixties, with a lengthy prior political career in Chongqing. The municipal Political Consultative Conference (''zhengxie'') meets at around the same time as the People's Congress. Its role is to advise on political issues. The ''zhengxie'' is headed by a leader who is typically a former municipal or regional official with a lengthy career in the party and government bureaucracy.

Chongqing used to be the headquarters of the [[13th Group Army]] of the [[People's Liberation Army]], one of the two group armies that formerly comprised the [[Chengdu Military Region]], which was reorganized into the [[Western Theater Command]] in 2016.{{citation needed|date=February 2023}}

===Administrative divisions===

The municipality is divided into 38 subdivisions (3 were abolished in 1997, and [[Wansheng]] and [[Shuangqiao District, Chongqing|Shuangqiao]] districts were abolished in October 2011<ref>{{cite web |url=http://news.163.com/11/1027/18/7HD2AKAQ00014JB5.html |script-title=zh:重庆调整部分行政区划：4区(县)并为2区 |website=News.163.com |date=17 March 2010 |access-date=10 December 2013  |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111031082259/http://news.163.com/11/1027/18/7HD2AKAQ00014JB5.html |archive-date=31 October 2011 }}</ref>), consisting of 26 districts, 8 counties, and 4 autonomous counties. The boundaries of Chongqing municipality reach much farther into the city's hinterland than the boundaries of the other three provincial level municipalities (Beijing, Shanghai and [[Tianjin]]), and much of its administrative area, which spans over {{convert|80000|sqkm|sqmi|sigfig=3|abbr=on}}, is rural. At the end of year 2018, the total population is 31.02 million.
