Prague is the capital of the Czech Republic and as such is the regular seat of its central authorities. Since 24 November 1990, it is ''de facto'' again a statutory city, but has a specific status of the municipality and the region at the same time. Prague also houses the administrative institutions of the [[Central Bohemian Region]].

Until 1949, all administrative districts of Prague were formed by the whole one or more cadastral unit, municipality or town. Since 1949, there has been a fundamental change in the administrative division. Since then, the boundaries of many urban districts, administrative districts and city districts are independent of the boundaries of cadastral territories and some cadastral territories are thus divided into administrative and self-governing parts of the city. [[Cadastre|Cadastral area]] (for example, [[Vinohrady]] and [[Smíchov]]) are still relevant especially for the registration of land and real estate and house numbering.

Prague is divided into 10 municipal districts (1–10), 22 administrative districts (1–22), 57 municipal parts, and 112 cadastral areas.

===City government===
Prague is administered by the autonomous [[Prague City Assembly]], which consists of 65 members and is elected through municipal elections. As of Dec. 20, 18 members of the council were from the centre-right [[SPOLU (Czech Republic)|Together Prague]] group, which governs the city in conjunction with 12 members of the [[Czech Pirate Party|Pirates]] (centre to centre-left) and 5 members of the [[Mayors and Independents]] group (centre to centre-right).<ref name="k218">{{cite web | last=Michal | first=Petr | title=Parking reform in Prague: Disagreements in the coalition over the price of parking in zones!
